Alien wreckage on the surface of Mars. The back shell and parachute that slowed the Perseverance rover into the Martian atmosphere. As photographed by the Mars Ingenuity Helicopter.

  1. That red Martian dust is gonna be a problem for people that SpaceX puts on Mars. Like "damn sand gets into everything."
    At least with the concentration of iron oxide its a ready source of oxygen. If they find decent access to deposits of water ice, dry ices too its gonna make life easier setting up a colony.
    Anyone know if they have discovered deposits of metal ores?

    1. I don't know about any metal ore deposits, but my brothers-in-law, Larry, Darrel and Darrel, have the exclusive rights to operate the dumps on Mars and this is their first location. They figured it would be easier to open a new dump than have to develop some sort of trash collection system. They said they will just open a new dump right on the spot that anyone left trash laying around. They think they're gonna be sitting high on the hog soon.
