Don't they just look so much like wet mud. Notice the tiny holes that
have appeared in the soil?
/CME (Coronal mass ejections) recently, maybe this
is what damaged Spirit?

discovers water on mars
Bernd,
Superb!
That just has to have been made by water!, you even can see small
streams and a shoreline (when you zoom in).
I think that's one the best photo of mars I have ever seen!
Just imagine what is to come..

that the rover heard them, but they did not receive expected scientific
and engineering data during scheduled communication passes during the
rest of that
,I must be bored :)
