With pictures like this it's so hard to convince my brain that it's not just a picture of a random boulder taken with flash at night.
Except no weathering.
There is lots of weathering on mars
But not on an asteroid
They literally shot it with a 2kg copper slug (bullet) to expose parts that were not weathered to collect samples
