The specialized magazine “Ciel & Espace”, in particular, which relayed the photo on its Twitter account, specified that it was a landslide.
NASA hasn’t commented on the ‘gate,’ but netizens had a blast: Could it be Jesus’ space tomb, ET’s birthplace, or a portal? to another dimension?
One thing is for sure, the photo was snapped as Curiosity climbed Mount Sharp, a mountain that rises 18,000ft from the floor of Gale Crater, where it landed at the start of its assignment.
The gate was seen on a slope called the Greenheugh Pediment, the terrain of which resembles alligator scales.
The rover has been treading cautiously through this particular region for months in its quest to slowly climb this ancient Martian mountain. He might never reach the top.

Meanwhile, NASA’s Perseverance rover, which landed on Mars in 2021, is currently collecting rock cores from an ancient dry lake that might become the first Red Planet samples ever returned to Earth.
Scientists think these rocks might potentially contain fossilized microbes that lived on Mars when it was habitable around four billion years ago.
