New pictures released by NASA have caught the eyes of Star Wars fans as it appears to show an object that looks like a lightsaber on the Mars surface.
While the idea of a real-life lightsaber would no-doubt be exciting for many, NASA has said that fans shouldn't get their hopes up too much. While the object does look like the handle of one of the laser swords used in the George Lucas' films, they actually serve another purpose.
According to the space agency, this tubular object has been confirmed to be a container dropped by the Perseverance Rover.
