Summary :Late in 2008 frozen water was discovered on mars creating big controversy weather mars was attainable to life. This discovery led to many new ways to finding better and more accurate information. The discovery also helped NASA discover that maybe Mars wasn't just an arid, acidly planet . it led them to see the planets true characteristics.This week another shocking discovery has been made. Frozen rivulets of salt water has been found running down the side of the planet. This new information has began to question weather humans are going to be able to live and visit the planet. Humans might be able to visit by 2030 if we can find the source of the water.
Analysis: The water rivulets are just the beginning to finding about about mars. We could finally see whats under the layers of dirt Mars and have an accurate description of its core and inner-terrain.terrain. This information will be the groundwork for future expeditions to the planet. NASA expects that by how fast they are obtaining information about the planet, we might be able to visit by 2030. Visiting the red planet will bring us so far . The amount of data and materiel's needed to fund a trip like this is astounding but the information we will gather on the trip will be even more astounding. I cant wait what 15 years will bring.

ReplyDeleteI think this discovery is amazing! I can t wait to see the progress and what happens in the next couple of years.
It's really amazing to see how much we have developed. Visiting another planet would be an insane step towards gaining further knowledge of our solar system.

Wow! This is so cool. I think it is fascinating to see how far we've come and to imagine all the more possibilities that could come. I mean just imagine: instead of people moving to Houston and Alabama and Canada we'd move to Mars. Whoa.
ReplyDeletei wrote about this too! It is so exciting the discoveries we are making
ReplyDeleteI also wrote about this! I actually really want to be an astronaut and be on the first manned mission to mars. I want to be the on board horticulturalist to grow the food for other astronauts and run soil analysis to see if martian soil is capable of sustaining earthly organic compounds. -Eva Semrad
ReplyDeleteI think life on Mars could be a possibility in the future, but as of right now (with the amount of life sustaining technology we have) I'm not super positive that we could maintain life on Mars.
