No, it's not a decrepit hand clawing out of the ground, agency researchers said. (Sorry, folks. So far, there's no evidence of life anywhere other than Earth.)

Curiosity discovered the rocks on Mount Sharp, a 3-mile-tall Martian mountain it has been climbing for about eight years. The rover, a car-size robot, is investigating a region that could hold evidence of "a major change from wetter to drier conditions" in the planet's early history, according to NASA.
