List of rocks on Mars
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.
This is a list of named rocks on Mars alphabetically by mission.
Names for Mars rocks are largely unofficial designations used for ease of discussion purposes, as the International Astronomical Union's official Martian naming system declares that objects smaller than 100m (330ft) are not to be given official names. Because of this some less significant rocks seen in photos returned by Mars rovers have been named more than once, and others have even had their names changed later due to conflicts or even matters of opinion.
