Colonization of Mars has been cancelled.

$4B NASA contract to land humans on the Moon... down the drain.

Possible Mud Volcanoes on #Mars

Could Mars have mud volcanoes harboring microbes? A dome resembling Earth's mud volcanoes, with a textured surface and infrared cooling patterns, suggests a dried mud composition formed with water. Methane plumes on Mars might be linked to such structures, possibly releasing gas from subterranean microbial life.

The spaceship to Mars must have enough space to host the entire Youtube-like database.

... but where would Marsokhod go? (that is always my chief preoccupation). Nine sites were described, and are shown on this map. One was illustrated in more detail, on the plateau of Aurorae Planum south of Capri Chasma (and very close to some candidate Viking sites). It is site G on the global map. Site E is quite close to Viking 1, site D is near Viking 2. I wouldn't fancy driving a rover near Viking 2. Tomorrow, more Russia.

Things were tough for Russian space in the 1990s, and several ideas emerged to work with them, including using ICBMs as launch vehicles - such as this:

This report mentions a Marsokhod evolved from the Lunokhods. Another Marsokhod mission was described by the lead author (Bruce Lusignan of Stanford) in 1996. The rover might collect samples for later return to Earth. An orbiter would relay data and might drop penetrators...

"Volcano Found Hiding 'In Plain Sight' Right Next to NASA Mars Rover" by @ScienceAlert - A mountain on the rim of the giant Jezero Crater always looked like a volcano. But it's best to use caution about assumptions from Earth geology applying to Mars. Now with satellite imagery and rover-collected ground data, data supports that it is indeed a volcano. https://www.sciencealert.com/volcano-found-hiding-in-plain-sight-right-next-to-nasa-mars-rover #NASA #Mars #volcano #geology
