Using Pixle to Analyze Martian Rocks

The rover is exploring different sedimentary layers. We're looking at changes in composition as we go through those, just like a geologist would here on earth. Morgan specifically works on an instrument called pixle that analyzes the make up of martian rocks. The only way we'll know for sure if any of this is life, at least points to life,. as if we're able to look at rock samples up close and back on earth with all the equipment scientists couldn't pack on to the rover.
