Mars Phoenix Tweets: "We Have ICE!"

I hope this satisfies them. Now, can we get our budget back so we can solve the issues here, before we create more issues somewhere else?

There is water ice on Mars within reach of the Mars Phoenix Lander, NASA scientists announced Thursday.

Photographic evidence settles the debate over the nature of the white material seen in photographs sent back by the craft. As seen in lower left of this image, chunks of the ice sublimed (changed directly from solid to gas) over the course of four days, after the lander’s digging exposed them.

Unusual Object Photographed by the Phoenix Lander

Very neat, casting shadow too! Looks like one of th geyser Mr. Joseph P. Skipper found in other pictures. He’s got a great website found at www.MarsAnomalyResearch.com.

Is NASA Changing the Color of Mars?

I’d like to know why they would change the color of the pictures. The motivations?

For a very long time now some people have maintained that NASA is changing the colors in the images it releases. Some even maintain that they are airbrushing some and even not releasing some at all.

Let’s take a look at a few images to see if we can spot any hanky-panky with the colors.

Here is an image of the lander that delivered Spirit to the Martian surface taken by Spirit.

NASA Spacecraft Photographs Avalanches on Mars

Pasadena, Calif. – A NASA spacecraft in orbit around Mars has taken the first ever image of active avalanches near the Red Planet’s north pole. The image shows tan clouds billowing away from the foot of a towering slope, where ice and dust have just cascaded down.

The High Resolution Imaging Experiment (HiRISE) on NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter took the photograph Feb. 19. It is one of approximately 2,400 HiRISE images being released today.

Ingrid Daubar Spitale of the University of Arizona, Tucson, who works on targeting the camera and has studied hundreds of HiRISE images, was the first person to notice the avalanches. “It really surprised me,” she said. “It’s great to see something so dynamic on Mars. A lot of what we see there hasn’t changed for millions of years.”
