New Clues Suggest Wet Era On Early Mars Was GlobalPasadena CA (JPL) Jun 25, 2010 Minerals in northern Mars craters seen by two orbiters suggest that a phase in Mars' early history with conditions favorable to life occurred globally, not just in the south. Southern and northern Mars differ in many ways, so the extent to which they shared ancient environments has been open to question. In recent years, the European Space Agency's Mars Express orbiter and NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter have found clay minerals that are signatures of a wet environment at thousands of sit ... read more |

Each of the 600 newly released observations from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera aboard NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter covers an area of several square miles on Mars and reveals details as small a ... more 
Tucson AZ (SPX) Jun 09, 2010A geologic mapping project using NASA spacecraft data offers new evidence that expansive lakes existed long ago on Mars. The research points to a series of sedimentary deposits consistent with what would relate to large standing bodies of water in Hellas Planitia located in the southern hemisphere of Mars, said by Dr.Leslie Bleamaster, research scientist at the Planetary Science Institute. ... more 
Cologne, Germany (SPX) Jun 09, 2010It resembles a cross between a Finnish sauna and an enlarged roof structure from the seventies - but this wood-panelled container with its dormer-style roof, in which six men are going to be living from 3 June in voluntary isolation for 17 months, is not intended to provide much by way of luxury. In the Mars500 experiment conducted by the European Space Agency (ESA), nothing less than the ... more |

Drilling Down Into MarsMoffett Field CA (SPX) Jun 08, 2010 Moffett Field CA (SPX) Jun 08, 2010 A catalogue of places on Earth where one can find Mars-like conditions might include Antarctica's Dry Valleys, Devon Island in the Canadian Arctic, the hyper-acidic Rio Tinto in Spain, and Chile's bone-dry Atacama Desert. But it probably wouldn't include Brooklyn. And yet it's in Brooklyn where, in an otherwise unexceptional warehouse, Honeybee Robotics has installed a massive stainless steel chamber whose interior environment can be made more Mars-like than mo ... read more |
