Observations
by NASA’s Curiosity Rover indicate Mars' Mount Sharp was built by
sediments deposited in a large lake bed over tens of millions of years.
This interpretation of Curiosity’s finds in Gale Crater suggests ancient
Mars maintained a climate that could have produced long-lasting lakes
at many locations on the Red Planet. Curiosity currently is
investigating the lowest sedimentary layers of Mount Sharp, a section of
rock 500 feet (150 meters) high dubbed the Murray formation.
