According to astronomers, the images show important clues that may facilitate the search for evidence of life on Mars. The study, published in the journal Science, was based on high-resolution images taken by the rover at a location where it is believed to be located. Once on the banks of a river that researchers believe layers within the slopes reveal how their formation occurred, NASA astrobiologist Amy Williams and colleagues in Florida have found similarities with the slopes seen from the crater and the patterns of rivers on Earth. The lower three layers showed a continuous presence and influx of water early on, indicating that Mars was warm and humid enough to support the hydrologic cycle around 3700 million years ago, while the upper and later layers have rolling edges measuring more than a meter in diameter scattered two and probably were Washed there by violent floods. However, it is the fine sediments of the core layer that are probably the target of the sample for signs of the extinction of life on Mars, if any. In September, Perseverance collected the first two rock samples at Jezero that showed signs of prolonged contact with groundwater, which may give clues to ancient life on the Red Planet.

Researchers believe that layers within the cliffs reveal how their formation occurred, as NASA astrobiologist Amy Williams and colleagues found in Florida. Similarity With cliffs seen from the floor of the pit and Earth’s River Patterns.
The shape of the bottom three layers showed presence and a Continuous flow of water early on, suggesting that Mars was warm and humid enough to support a hydrological cycle about 3.7 billion years ago.
Whereas the upper and newer layers have rolling edges more than a meter in diameter scattered and may have been washed there by violent floods. However, it is likely that the substrate fine sediments are the target of the sample Signs of the extinction of life on Mars, if it exists.
