We are also void of "In N Out's" and anything else good.

hblask 1 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 To get briefly back to the original subject:This NASA link says: NASA Images Suggest Water Still Flows in Brief Spurts on MarsNASA photographs have revealed bright new deposits seen in two gullies on Mars that suggest water carried sediment through them sometime during the past seven years."These observations give the strongest evidence to date that water still flows occasionally on the surface of Mars," said Michael Meyer, lead scientist for NASA's Mars Exploration Program, Washington.Liquid water, as opposed to the water ice and water vapor known to exist at Mars, is considered necessary for life. The new findings heighten intrigue about the potential for microbial life on Mars. The Mars Orbiter Camera on NASA's Mars Global Surveyor provided the new evidence of the deposits in images taken in 2004 and 2005."The shapes of these deposits are what you would expect to see if the material were carried by flowing water," said Michael Malin of Malin Space Science Systems, San Diego. "They have finger-like branches at the downhill end and easily diverted around small obstacles." Malin is principal investigator for the camera and lead author of a report about the findings published in the journal Science.OK, back to the "golf in space" jokes. Maybe you can talk about the "brief spurts" of liquid mentioned in the press release, too. Link to post Share on other sites
