<p><span style="font-weight: 400">The US space agency published images Friday of a small mound with a hole in its center next to the rover&#8211;the first ever dug into the Red Planet by a robot. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">But data sent to Earth by the rover after its first attempt to collect a sample and seal it in a tube indicated on rock had been gathered. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">“While this is not the ‘hole-in-one’ we hoped for, there is always risk with breaking new ground,” said Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for NASA’s science mission directorate, in a statement. </span></p>
