(UPDATED W PHOTOS) NASA's Curiosity rover ran over a rock and found crystals inside! They're pure sulfur. Elemental sulfur is something we've never seen before on Mars. We don't know much about these yellow crystals yet, but the team is already at work to figure it out!

I don't have a logical reason for it but the quotes "Tell the emperor that my hall has fallen. Apollo no longer has his house, nor his mantic bay, nor his prophetic spring; the water has gone quite." And "My battery is low and it's getting dark" have the same energy to them. Perhaps on occasion, the machine and divine can speak the same poetry.

Currently in the twelfth year of its mission, NASA's Curiosity rover continues to press on while treading the world of Mars, delving into areas no rover has gone before. The latest phase of Curiosity's adventure has brought it to what some scientists believe is the desiccated bed of an ancient river.  As Curiosity prepares to follow Gediz Vallis, as scientists call this winding and boulder-choked channel, it will try to give scientists a look back through time so they can discover how the landform came to be in the first place

!!!!!! the curiosity rover found elemental sulfur crystals on mars for the first time!!!!!!
pure sulfur isn't something scientists would expect to find in the environment the curiosity rover is exploring, which is exciting! it means there's some gap in our knowledge of the site's geological history, and learning how the sulfur got there will teach us something new about mars and its history
finding the unexpected is really the most fun thing about science, and this news made my day ^^
