The Mars rover
Curiosity, a key element of the mission Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) NASA
resumed traffic January 3 and drove right up to the twisting geological
formation, called Snake river ("Zmeistaya river").
Snake River is a thin
curved line of dark rock, running through between flat slabs of lighter rocks
and towering over the sand. Curiosity rover science team plans to study this
form of relief in detail, before switching to other nearby rocks.
