4. NASA's Perseverance Mars rover captures dust devils swirling across Jezero Crater
ANNOTATION: It's quieter, though, since Mars' thin atmosphere makes for more muted sounds and less forceful wind.

ANNOTATION: Dust devils are common on the red planet. They've been photographed for decades but never heard until now.
STORYLINE:
A NASA rover on Mars by chance had its microphone on when a whirling tower of red dust passed overhead last year and caught the sound.
Scientists released the first-of-its-kind audio Tuesday.
The 10-second clip includes not only rumbling gusts of up to 25 mph, but the pinging of hundreds of dust particles against the rover.
It sounds a lot like dust devils on Earth, just quieter. That's because Mars' thin atmosphere makes for more muted sounds and less forceful wind.
Perseverance provided the first sounds of Mars wind soon after landing in February last year.
