Martian clouds observed by Mars Global Surveyor Mars Orbiter Camera
[1] We have made daily global maps that cover both polar and equatorial regions of Mars for Ls 135 –360 and 0 –111 using the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) red and blue wide-angle swaths taken from May 1999 to January 2001. We study the seasonal distribution of condensate clouds and dust clouds during roughly 1 Martian year using these daily global maps. We present the dev...
متن کاملCarbon reservoirs on Mars: Constraints from Martian meteorites
Introduction: The search for life on Mars is a subject of enormous scientific and public interest; it is anticipated that remote missions to Mars over the coming few years will garner the requisite data that will allow the presence, or otherwise, of martian biological carbon to be determined. The only previous attempt to detect the presence of life in martian soil, made by instruments on the Vi...
متن کاملMars Analogs on Earth: Putative Habitats on Mars? Lectures from Extremophiles
Mineralogy studies by NASA Opportunity Rover report iron oxides and hydroxides precipitates on Endurance Crater. Sedimentary deposits have been identify at Meridiani Planum [2]. This deposits should had generated in a dune aqueous acidic and oxidizing environment. Similarities appear when we study Rio Tinto, and acidic river under the control of iron [3]. We will focus on two principal Mars Ana...
متن کاملWere Aqueous Ripples on Mars Formed by Flowing Brines?
The discovery in 2004 by Mars exploration rover Opportunity of sedimentary rocks with centimeter-scale trough cross-bedding is one of the compelling lines of evidence for flowing water on the Martian surface. The rocks contain a significant evaporite component mixed with weathered mafic silicates, suggesting that the aqueous fluid in contact with the sediments must have been of very high ionic ...
متن کاملObservation of the Martian Cryptic Region from Mars Orbiter Camera
Introduction: The distribution of the Martian south pole is not symmetric during the springtime retreat. On the opposite side of the residual cap a socalled cryptic region is found between latitudes 75 and 85 and longitude 150 W and 310 W [8]. A major puzzle about the cryptic region is that the albedo appears almost as dark as the bare ground but the surface temperature still remains cold. The ...
