Here are more examples from Curiosity's right mastcam taken on sol 1448 which show possible evidence of engineered structure now in ruins. Below, what appears to be a structural fragment complete with square opening or "cubby."

Clean edges appear on the sample below, as if cut by machined tools.

A hollow construct with a hole (below)?

All the mastcam images from sol 1448 are pretty unique, I recommend viewing them all.

The catalog image released on 10/03 looks really good. There appear to be shattered multi-beveled pieces of structure all over this formation. Below are some enhanced examples from the tif catalog release.

Thank you to everyone who has stuck by the YouTube channel and to all of our admins and forum users here on the channel. They really have kept the website current while I have been busy taking care of things in my personal life. I promised that the next video would be a long one and have a LOT to look at. You can get lost in these Gigapans and I really hope that you do! I spent a lot of time stitching these together and making sure that they were the best quality that I could get them. SOL 1448 really has been a goldmine for anomaly hunters and those people who are just hobbiest. I really hope you enjoy this one and expect much more to come from the latest batches of images!
