Mystery Rock Found On Mars

I'm surprised this isn't a bigger story, but in case you missed it, the Mars Rover has uncovered a mystery rock that is unlike anything we have ever seen. Here's an excerpt from the Independent...

Astronomers noticed the new rock had "appeared" without any explanation on an outcrop which had been empty just days earlier. The rover has been stuck photographing the same region of Mars for more than a month due to bad weather, with scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in California monitoring the images it sends.

Cue the spooky music.
