Clouds on Mars

September 3rd, 2008 § 0 comments

The Phoenix Lander pointed her eyes towards the Martian skies and took some stills of the ice clouds she found there, which researchers have tuned into this brief animation.

The Mars mission is so far outside my understanding that it sometimes seems unreal. Images like this lessen that effect.

    That is a really cool animation. One thing I would have to say is I am not fully into the exploration nor am I interested in the whole “lets find life somewhere else.”

    I think we have to fix the problems here on earth first instead of packing our bags and abandoning it first.

    …but enough of the hippy talk. This is neat.
