The Mars rover Curiosity has become the first robot to drill into a rock to collect a sample on Mars. They have yet to complete chemical analysis but the material from the drill appears to be gray. Scientists explained that when things turn orange, it’s because there’s a rusting process of some kind going on that oxidizes the iron in the rock. This color change and possible discovery of non oxidized rock may mean that we can uncover proof of life on Mars!
