Opportunity Keeps On Driving To Endeavour CraterPasadena CA (JPL) Jul 05, 2010 Opportunity continues to make good progress toward Endeavour crater as solar energy levels improve. On Sol 2281 (June 24, 2010), the rover completed over 70 meters (230 feet), driving east/southeast. On Sol 2283 (June 26, 2010), the rover headed 57 meters (187 feet) to the northeast to avoid some large ripples. The rover drove again on Sol 2286 (June 29, 2010), covering over 70 meters (230 feet) to the east. As of Sol 2286 (June 29, 2010), solar array energy production has improv ... read more |

A third of Mars once covered by ocean: studyParis (AFP) June 13, 2010 A huge, potentially life-giving sea likely covered more than a third of Mars some 3.5 billion years ago, according to a study released Sunday. Spread over an area the size of the Atlantic Ocean, it would have straddled the north pole and contained the equivalent of a tenth of the water on Earth. For decades scientists have argued as to whether the Red Planet once harboured bodies of water big enough to help nourish a true hydrological cycle marked by evaporation and rainfall. Recent evidence ... read more |
