Spherules With Stems   Message List  
Reply Message #27941 of 35860 |

Pointed out today by Tim Shell on the UFO UpDates list, from Sol 37. Just over a
third of the way down from the top of the image, on the left side but near
middle of image, protruding from a small piece of bedrock. Distinct "stem" and
shadow (best I've seen yet):

There's also an earlier one from Sol 16 I had noticed but was unsure about so
didn't post yet. It is in the patch of otherwise bare soil near the bottom left
corner of the image; this one is sticking out of the soil, not from a piece of
bedrock (or maybe buried bedrock perhaps).

And another spherule sliced by the rover that seemed to have a possible
protruding extension too (the upper right spherule):

I'll post some enlargements of these as soon as I can.

The concretions simply precipitated on to the "stem". Such a projection would actually provide a core for precipitates to collected on. ... Paul Anderson...
