During his journey through the Lake crater, Rover Perseverance on the Red Planet came across an interesting object that looks like someone has pushed it into a crack in a small boulder.
“My team noticed something unexpected,” said a post that appeared on his official Twitter account.
Upon closer inspection, the experts were finally able to confirm that it was not an object made by an alien civilization, but an ordinary piece of human waste.
Shall we infect the garbage universe?
Specifically, it could be part of the heat shield from the descent stage, with which Perseverance successfully landed on the surface of Mars in February last year.
However, this happened about 2 kilometers away from the boulder in which the garbage in question was found. According to NASA, it is possible that the wind blew him to his current location, for example.
Be that as it may, this event has once again drawn attention to the issue of space pollution. Unfortunately, as our research into alien worlds continues, similar findings will become more frequent.
