Curiosity finds massive metal meteorite on Mars as it moves into more dangerous, exciting territory

2014-07-16 16:03:21| Extremetech

NASA's Curiosity rover has encountered a massive iron meteorite on Mars. At roughly two meters (6.5 feet) wide, and who knows how much beneath the surface, the meteorite (dubbed "Lebanon") might be the largest ever discovered on Mars. In other news, Curiosity recently celebrated its first Martian anniversary, and is now about two thirds of the way to its primary target of Mount Sharp, which it should reach in early 2015.
