"CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – NASA’s Mars rover Curiosity is on the road toward Mount Sharp, the primary target of a planned two-year mission to search for habitats that could have supported life, officials said on Wednesday. Ten months ago the rover landed inside a giant impact basin near the planet’s equator, a site selected because of the 3-mile-high (5-km-high) mound of layered rock rising from the crater floor. Instead of heading directly to Mount Sharp, scientists wanted to explore an area in the opposite direction where images from orbit showed three different types of rocks coming together."
