“The thing I find most exciting about this sample is that it contains features large enough to be seen with the naked eye that could be examined to test for past life,” said Michael Tice, a study co-author and Mars 2020 science team member, per the Washington Post. “That’s surprisingly rare when you are studying evidence for ancient microscopic life.”
The rover discovered the “building rocks” while roaming the inside of Neretva Vallis, an ancient river valley on the Red Planet. Billions of years ago, this intergalactic aqueduct supplied water to the Jezero Crater, an alleged former lake bed that supposedly held the precursors to life.
