NASA solves mystery of jelly doughnut-shaped rock on Mars


NASA announced this week that it has solved the mystery of the “jelly doughnut-shaped” rock that suddenly appeared in front of the Mars rover Opportunity earlier this year. The small white-ish rock with a deep red center was dubbed “Pinnacle Island” by scientists at NASA, who say the rock wasn't there one day, and then 12 Martian days later, it showed up in images that Opportunity sent back.
