This is most likely because I know absolutely nothing about space exploration but I found the line below to be the most interesting piece in the article. (because as posted already, I'll just chalk this "strange light" up as a photographic anomaly.)

> "Arrival at this location means Curiosity has driven 3.8 miles since August 2012, when it landed inside Mars' Gale Crater."

It's crazy for me to think about this in comparison to Earth. Imagine somebody dropping a robot on Earth before any known life and trying to make sensible conclusions about what the entire planet was like by only exploring 3.8 miles...
