متن کاملOrganic molecules in the Sheepbed Mudstone, Gale Crater, Mars
The Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) instrument on board the Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity rover is designed to conduct inorganic and organic chemical analyses of the atmosphere and the surface regolith and rocks to help evaluate the past and present habitability potential of Mars at Gale Crater. Central to this task is the development of an inventory of any organic molecules present to elucid...
متن کاملOrganics on Mars?
Organics are expected to exist on Mars based on meteorite infall, in situ production, and any possible biological sources. Yet they have not been detected on the martian surface; are they there, or are we not capable enough to detect them? The Viking gas chromatograph–mass spectrometer did not detect organics in the headspace of heated soil samples with a detection limit of parts per billion. T...
متن کاملThe State-of-the-art in Capillary Electrophoresis and Microchip Electrophoresis Instrumentation for Ocean Worlds Missions Seeking Signs of Life
Introduction: A reasonable assumption in the search for life on ocean worlds is that the limit of detection required of analytical instrumentation for dissolved organics is on the order of parts-per-billion, which is similar to the concentration of organics in extreme environments such as subglacial Lake Vostok in Antarctica [1]. This limit of detection requirement is challenging to meet using ...
متن کاملSynthesis of Akaganeite in the Presence of Sulfate: Implications for Akaganeite Formation in Yellowknife Bay, Gale Crater, Mars
Introduction: Akaganeite (β-FeOOH) is an Fe(III) (hydr)oxide with a tunnel structure usually occupied by chloride. Akaganeite has been recently discovered in a mudstone on the surface of Mars by the Chemistry and Mineralogy (CheMin) and Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) instruments onboard the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) Curiosity Rover in Gale crater [1, 2]. Akaganeite was detected together with...
