Mars ‘doughnut’ spotted by Perseverance rover
  + stars: | 2023-06-29 | by ( Kristen Rogers | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +4 min
CNN —An image captured by the Mars rover Perseverance shows a mysterious doughnut-shaped rock on the red planet’s surface. Launched in July 2020, the Mars Perseverance rover continues to explore the planet’s 28-mile-wide (45-kilometer-wide) Jezero Crater for signs of ancient microbial life, according to NASA. Another rock could have been embedded in the center of the doughnut-shaped rock before weather eroded it, leaving a cavity, he added. The Mars doughnut isn’t the only pastry-shaped rock that has been found on the planet. In 2014, NASA’s Opportunity rover spotted a small rock that’s white on the outside, with a red interior — like a jelly doughnut, Lee said.
