Now that I see the pic I’m thinking more along the lines of windblown pumice or something.

They were looking for bacteria- maybe it’s the rock of phages...
Looks like it’s in both photos to me.

... Are the cart ruts 4 foot 8-1/2 inches apart?

Windblown pumice would be extremely unlikely. The atmospheric pressure is so low on Mars there wouldn’t be enough PSI to move a rock, I should think. But I am not sure.

Now that I see the pic Im thinking more along the lines of windblown pumice or something. The atmosphere of Mars is too thin to blow things around (except the finest dust.) This stone could be a piece of a meteoroid, or something that said meteoroid struck somewhere nearby. There are many craters on Mars, since the atmosphere cannot burn the incoming rocks as it does on Earth.

Yes it does, if those are supposed to be the 4 day apart photos.
To: BenLurkin
Relax! It’s just a candy wrapper.
