A sand dune is the next obstacle in the way of NASA's curiosity rover on Mars.

The rover now needs to decide if it going to go across the dune in what could lead it to its final destination, Mount Sharp according to Space.com.

"The rover team is evaluating possible driving routes on the other side before [making] a decision [about] whether [to] cross the gap," NASA officials described the image as "The view covers a panorama from south, at the left edge, to north-northwest at the right edge. It is presented as a cylindrical projection."

NASA's second rover on the red planet had a very long journey on the red planet, landing last August to begin taking in its air and further investigating its certain aspects BBC News reported.

The new findings include two kinds of argon gas in argon 36, and argon 38. Curiosity was able to find these through its Sample Analysis at Mars tool (SAM) a press release reported. The Rover discovered rare meteorites through its Sample Analysis at Mars tool in October the American Geophysical Union reported in a press release.

The rover also came across a mysterious rock the size of a jelly doughnut Jan. 16, a couple feet in front of it according to Discovery News.

Rhawn Joseph, a neuroscientist and astrobiologist wants NASA to photograph different parts of the rock, and do a full examination, and then tell the public what they found The Sky Valley Chronicle reported.

Joseph has reported filed a lawsuit against the agency in United States District Court according to information from The Chronicle reported.

NASA released an image of the rock in a photo, which previously did not have the rock in it twelve days earlier The Chronicle reported.
