JAKARTA, KOMPAS.TV – Human trash found lying on the surface of Mars. NASA said the trash was caught on camera by the Perseverance Mars Rover rover.
The trash found was in the form of a glossy foil layer. It is thought that the object serves as a thermal blanket used to control temperature.
“My team has seen something unexpected: this is part of the thermal blanket they think may have come from my descending ladder, the rocket-powered jet pack that brought me down on landing day in 2021,” tweeted the Nasa Perseverance Rover account, Thursday (16/01/2011). 6/2022).
It is known, the Mars rover, Perseverance was used in the mission on Planet Mars 2020. The robot’s mission is to hunt for signs of microbial life near its landing site, the Jezero Crater.

“Shocking to find this (human waste) here (Planet Mars),” the tweet continued.
The discovery of human waste is not far from where the robot explorer landed. The discovery distance is quite close, which is about 2 kilometers from the landing point.
“Did this piece of (thermal blanket) land here after that (the descent of the robot), or was it blown here?” they asked.
Reported Kompas.com, the discovery of suspected human debris on Mars is nothing new. The object, which is believed to be garbage, was also found in April.
