\n NASA\u2019s Curiosity Rover has spotted a dust devil traveling across the surface of Mars.<\/p>\n

The rover captured remarkable footage of the dust devil from its vantage point in Mars\u2019 Gale Crater.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s almost summer in Gale crater, which puts us in a period of strong surface heating that lasts from early spring through mid-summer,\u201d said Claire Newman, atmospheric scientist at Aeolis Research, in a blog post. \u201cStronger surface heating tends to produce stronger convection and convective vortices, which consist of fast winds whipping around low pressure cores.\u201d<\/p>\n

The animated GIF shows a dust devil was captured over a five-minute period by the rover\u2019s NAVCAM (Navigation Cameras) on Martian day, or Sol, 2847.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe often have to process these images, by enhancing what\u2019s changed between them, before dust devils clearly show up,\u201d Newman explained in the post. \u201cBut this dust devil was so impressive that \u2014 if you look closely! \u2014 you can just see it moving to the right, at the border between the darker and lighter slopes, even in the raw images.\u201d<\/p>\n

NASA\u2019s Curiosity Rover touched down on Mars\u2019 Gale Crater on Aug. 5, 2012, and recently celebrated eight years on the Red Planet.<\/p>\n

Last year, the rover detected an \u201cunusually high\u201d level of methane on Mars, and in 2018 NASA revealed that it had found organic molecules.<\/p>\n

In July, NASA\u2019s Mars 2020 Perseverance Rover launched on its epic mission to the Red Planet, a journey that is expected to take seven months. The rover is scheduled to land on Mars\u2019 Jezero Crater on Feb 18, 2021. The mission\u2019s duration on the Red Planet\u2019s surface is at least one Martian year or about 687 days.<\/p>\n

NASA\u2019s long-term goal is to send a manned mission to Mars in the 2030s. However, former astronaut Buzz Aldrin thinks that a slightly later target date of 2040 is more realistic.<\/p>\n

In an interview in 2016, the Gemini 12 and Apollo 11 astronaut told Fox News that he believed astronauts could visit Mars\u2019 moon Phobos by 2040, which could serve as a sort of stepping stone to the Red Planet.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
