i don't get it.

How's that rock so smooth?

Is that erosion from wind?

Or is that erosion from water?

If it's from water, we're in for some gnarly science return!

JPL said they are thinking dried seabed. Could still be water or ice farther down. Look for seaweed. :)

#2754= That does look like mud, and those small rocks look like something from a stream bed.... could something BIG be sitting right next to the lander?? This could become the luckiest lander mission of all time!
