UFO enthusiast spots 'Mushroom' in Mars rover image

Technology

A photo snapped by NASA's Curiosity rover back in 2013 is making waves again online.
The image shows a weird bump on the Martian surface that some folks think looks like a mushroom, sparking fresh debates and plenty of social media buzz about possible life on Mars.
