PASADENA, Calif., April 3 (UPI) -- Visible signs of winds on Mars have come from an unexpected source -- photographs of the parachute that helped NASA's Curiosity rover land on Mars last summer.
A series of photos from NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter show the used parachute shifting its shape at least twice in response to wind, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., reported Wednesday.
