A Nasa solved the latest riddle on Marte. In July, the robot Perseverance discovered a mysterious object on the surface of the red planet. The image of a “spaghetti” spun the world and intrigued space observers. But what could it be? According to the agency, just debris from another probe. NASA said it could be a piece of netting (Dacron netting) used in thermal blankets to protect the spacecraft from extreme temperatures and conditions. In other areas, Perseverance also found remnants of thermal material. The ‘strange’ shape of the net may be linked to ‘strong forces’ from a violent landing. The robot continues on Martian soil trying to capture other objects.
