Answer» eleased images from NASA's Mars Global Surveyor SHOW that the red planet is a different place today than it was two years ago when the spacecraft arrived -- a world CONSTANTLY reshaped by forces of nature including shifting sand dunes, monster dust devils, wind storms, frosts and polar ice caps that grow and retreat with the seasons. "Mars is a cold, dry desert, but our camera has shown it is far from being a stagnant place," said Dr. Michael Malin, principal investigator for the Mars Global Surveyor camera at Malin SPACE Science Systems, San Diego, CA. "Over the past few months, we have captured a unique record of seasonal and meteorological EVENTS, which demonstrates that Mars is ACTIVE and dynamic today." |
