Lemon Rind - Sol 552

Caption NASA originale:"After months spent crossing a sea of rippled sands, Opportunity reached an outcrop in August 2005 and began investigating exposures of sedimentary rocks, intriguing rind-like features that appear to cap the rocks, and cobbles that dot the martian surface locally. Opportunity spent several Martian Days analyzing a feature called Lemon Rind, a thin surface layer covering portions of outcrop rocks poking through the sand north of Erebus Crater. In images from the PanCam, Lemon Rind appears slightly different in color than surrounding rocks. It also appears to be slightly more resistant to wind erosion than the outcrop's interior. This is an approximately true-color composite produced from frames taken during Opportunity's 552nd Sol (Aug. 13, 2005)".
