Mastcam mosaics captured two days ago by Perseverance. The rover must be getting close to its next major science target: Lac de Charmes.

Hard to catch up with all the science when papers for 2 years of campaigns (upper delta, margin unit and / ) all get released within a few weeks 🤦‍♂️

Jones et al: "A Fluvio-Lacustrine Environment Preserved in the Jezero Crater Inlet Channel, Neretva Vallis"

Fig. 20 from the linked paper: cross sections of Bright Angel & Neretva Vallis.Fig. 22: proposed geologic history for the Bright Angel deposition.

Timeline cleanser: megaripple beauty in @NeV_T 's processed panorama of sol 1717.

Large ripple structures with meandering layers. Rocks in the foreground both out of and in focus due to the original photo stitching.Closer look at another sun-facing ripple slope, the deposition complexity obvious from the different color tones of the processing.Transversal view of a stretch of the dune field with starker contrast of the shadowed and illuminated sides of each megaripple.Closeup of a wavy crest, lee to the left, stoss to the right.

Referenced in the above paper, had escaped me due to a different journal. Another detailed description of, imho, the most complex part of traverse.

Paywalled findings from drilling.

Tuggle et al : "Estimating Jezero Crater Rock Density and Strength Using Perseverance Drill Data: Implications for Future Mars Missions and Analog Mars Studies"
doi.org/10.1029/2025JE009097

"Key Points:

Drill engineering data are analyzed in order to understand the relationship between drill energy and rock unconfined compressive strength and density.

Coring data from Jezero crater are used to infer rock unconfined compressive strength, density, and heterogeneity.

Rocks found in Jezero crater are significantly less dense than expected based on their composition.
