NASA has released a series of new high-definition photos from Mars.

The images from the Martian surface were taken by different cameras on NASA’s Curiosity rover over the past few weeks. The images depict the landing site, various features of Gale Crater, Mount Sharp and tracks created by the rover.

NASA has been releasing pictures since early August, when Curiosity landed on Mars. The first color photo, which was released on Aug. 7, had a hazy, poor quality, because the dust cover was coated with fine debris.

The new rich, high-resolution images include 360-degree color panoramas as well as animated GIFs.

HuffPost Food recently went on a tour de force of some of America’s major casual dining chains. Regardless of your taste in cuisine, chances are you’ve found yourself at a casual dining restaurant before, whether one is your go-to Friday night spot or a road trip-only meal. These national chains pride themselves on creating a menu that can appeal to a wide variety of eaters. But are these calorie-heavy appetizers worth it? We pitted eight appetizers from eight casual dining chains against each other to find out. Week 8: Chicken Strips.

.

WINNER: Chili’s, 4.8

“Nicely crispy, great especially with honey mustard sauce.” “Could be crunchier, but the

meat couldn’t be much better.” “The best chicken strips I’ve ever had. Hands down, no

question about it.” “Great batter, real chicken taste.”

“For the first time we get to see what may be actual records kept by a scribe, whose job was to be official record keeper of a Maya community. It’s like an episode of TV’s ‘Big Bang Theory,’ a geek math problem and they’re painting on the wall. They seem to be using it like a blackboard.”

That’s Boston University archaeologist William Saturno talking about a new excavation of an ancient Mayan structure hidden in a rain forest in Guatemala’s Peten region, according to a written statement released by the National Geographic Society. The society supported the excavation, which Saturno led.
