Smile Mars Stuff: Check these out

I thought I would make one thread just for the Mars stuff I come across that people may want to know about, in place of the numerous threads I created before.
This is a shot of dust devils at work. Enjoy!

Re: Mars Stuff: Check these out

If I could, I would make a new Sub Forum and put everything in there, but we will have to wait for Grant to come back, same with monthly photo competitions. i can't make new galleries.

thanks - those dust devils were about 50 secs apart..., they said they had seen these whirlwinds in several photos, but not in a sequence like this...

Re: Mars Stuff: Check these out

NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander has detected snow falling from Martian clouds. Spacecraft soil experiments also have provided evidence of past interaction between minerals and liquid water, processes that occur on Earth.

Go visit: NASA - Phoenix

This is real snow....

Re: Mars Stuff: Check these out

I think there will be some great discoveries made about how Mars was in the past and how alike(in ways) the two planets once were.
