To say Baker City’s Property Maintenance ordinance is a work in progress assumes city councilors are making actual progress. They are, to be sure. But at a work session Tuesday morning, councilors didn’t have all the progress they’ve made so far in front of them.
The planet Mars conjures images of red rocks and arid, dusty plains, but as NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander showed last year, it snows on Mars.
NASA's Mars Phoenix Lander , which spent the summer in Mars' northern polar regions performing a variety of science experiments, caused quite a stir when rumors circulated that it had discovered signs of life on the Red Planet. NASA eventually held a press conference to dispel the rumors, promising that more details would eventually be revealed when scientists got around to publishing papers ...
Washington, July 3: Findings by NASA's Phoenix Mars mission indicates that the Red Planet had a wetter and warmer climate in the recent past, and could again in the future.
Favorable chemistry and episodes with thin films of liquid water during ongoing, long-term climate cycles may sometimes make the area where NASA's Phoenix Mars mission landed last year a favorable environment for microbes.
Scientists say the Red Planet's scant snow falls from clouds that are similar to the thin clouds of ice crystals seen over Earth's polar regions.
In a fresh set of research papers, scientists add perspective to the Phoenix Mars Lander's findings about Martian water and soil.
Scientists say that the Arctic region studied by Phoenix lander may be a favorable environment for microbes. Just-right chemistry and periods where thin films of liquid water form on the surface could make for a habitable setting. "Not only did we find water ice, as expected, but the soil chemistry and minerals we [...]
Phoenix Mars lander observes low-level clouds and snowfall on Mars.
For the first time, direct evidence of lightning has been detected on Mars, say researchers who found signs of electrical discharges during dust storms on the Red Planet.
