It's amazing the similarities that can be found on our neighbor planet. This could easily be mistaken for an overcast day somewhere in Nevada. This photo was taken by Curiosity rover on March 19 2021 and is a tiled mosaic of 21 images.

The thought of the possibility to just stand right there, feeling almost exactly like here on earth (ignoring the necessary protective equipment) is mindblowing.
I'd love to be able experience. I imagine it's like visiting another country for the first time, expecting it to be this wildly different place and then realizing that it's just more people going about the same things as back home, but in a slightly different way.
Exactly, you 100% got me.
