What if the biggest discovery on Mars isn’t at the destination - but what the rover passes by on the way? NASA’s rovers already navigate autonomously across the Martian surface. The next step? Train them to recognize science-worthy features while they’re on the move. One target: Martian “blueberries”—tiny mineral spheres that may indicate past water activity… and possibly life. The challenge? There isn’t enough real Martian data to train the AI to recognize what to look for. So we helped create
