NASA to Announce 'Significant' Mars Finding Thursday

reply to post by Phage


but why is it a problem? the low mean temps?

they have to stop believing there is nothing there and start thinking there "might" be something there.

like moving around somethings.

IR does not tell you what is hotter than the surrounding area.

or does it?

i'm not sure so this is not a confrontation.

as to the mic, we don't need to send a shure 57 since it might not work so good.

we need a mic thet can detect VLF and VHF, (ultrasonic)

anything making noise should be able to be recorded.

what does justin bieber use?

So what is the big discovery? Anyone know yet?

Signs of flowing water on Mars.
www.bbc.co.uk...

Finally,
How long has it taken for them to announce this?
I've been watching marsanomolyresearch website for years with strong evidence of not only flowing water but areas of free standing water fed by gullys aka a river system, not only that but there's whole swaths of pictures from mars where there's no visible terrain, its all coated in what looks like life.

But you have to ask yourself what the real impact of flowing water on Mars is, to most its just what everyone suspected and something Nasa denied for years and then in tiny leaks (ho ho) started to tell the public. It started with NO WATER, then ICE, then possible underground pools to now where its running water.

What is the next Nasa trickle (see I'm getting good at this), NO LIFE to signs that life was there at one point, next possible signs of dead life leading to THERE'S LIFE ON MARS.

Can they just speed up this process, its really boring waiting for the inevitable...

You know, we are big boys and girls now, we really can accept that there's life elsewhere without freaking out and imagining giant Martian robots suddenly winging their way here.

We can always get Tom Cruise to do what he does best again, whatever that is....

Pretty exciting stuff....Im a huge fan of life outside our planet. I know it has to be their logically, and it can be life changing once it is discovered. There are going to be so many other Earth like planets discovered in the next 40 years.

Completely agree. The whole process is boring but slowly confirms what most of us have suspected for a long time.

Since 1984 actually but who is keeping track right, just the way they like it. Whats the agenda then, I am still trying to figure it out.

lol do they really expect people to believe this...

"oh after all those rovers and satellite images we JUST figured out there's water over there... herp derp..."

Sigh....

Well now more of my friends who thought i was crazy when i showed them marsanomolyresearch have a big apology to make.

Movement of seepage-features in Richardson crater by Collegium Budapest, Mars Astrobiology Group

The animation above shows the growing of flow features on the dark dunes inside Richardson crater, on subsequent HiRISE images acquired between solar longitude=172 and 262 degrees, during local spring.
In the subsets 1-2 wind-blown diffuse streaks are present, in subsets 3-8 growing of flow features are visible, while in subsets 9-10 the disappearance of bright halo and the lighter streak left behind can be analyzed.

I was under the impression that it was extremely cold on mars. What are the temperatures?

This was nowhere yesterday, just seems conspiracy worthy on merit of sidetracking focus away from the economy.

That is, provided it is a "significant" finding.

How right you are....they have very selective timing..Anything to draw our attention away from the market, or any of the other wonderful goin ons taking place on a daily bases..
star for you...and for op

This is almost like a doctor coming out of the operating room and telling me I've got a son, but he is 25 years old !

Or a "This Old House" episode and saying there is a tree in the backyard, ya but there is a terrific custom kitchen and a refrigerator too.

When I was listening to the news conference live, I believe they said that the temperatures at the site that they provided the pics of running 'water' for hits highs of 80+ degrees F.

Please provide some links to these pics. I would like to see the Mars flora.

I believe it will be primarily about evidence of water in the recent past. That alone may make a case to make the location a destination for a new rover/robot/mission in the future. The question then is, will they look merely for water to confirm or will they also include the search for life into the mission.

What? They found water there again?

I will not hold my breath

Yes they found water, salt water

Thanks, and actually I'm both (OP and conspiracy nut comment) and thought it was strange timing indeed.
Although none of the TV media outlets had a story last night that I saw.

Strongest signal yet that there is water on Mars as scientists find 'streams' spilling over crater rims

And now we're being told that this is where Sea Monkeys "REALLY" come from!!!!

I think a seasonal hibernating crustacean-like cockroach creature would be feasible in a declining ecosystem such as Mars. They pretty much do good as a schematic on our planet.

Although, probably not O2 basis respiration, possibly symbiotic relationship with parasitic C02 algae/bacteria that the host crabroach keeps in its tail gills!!!!

just thinking...
