A nicely shaped pebble, sitting close to the rover, imaged on sol 1436 (March 5, 2025), by one of the rover’s front Hazard avoidance cameras.

It would look cool on my desk as a paperweight :)

        This one looks like it’s REALLY looking down on you, with intense disapproval. And it’s got a big nose.

          The disapproval could be associated with having being zapped with the rover’s laser (See the 5 small bright spots on its surface)

          is it made of clay, and can you chew it?

          Not clay, it’s an iron-nickel meteorite, that stuff is harder than nails, so chewing it would likely require some special teeth :)
