Oil or tar on Mars??

Is that possible without decayed carbon based plants??

Enquiring minds, etc.

I bet NASA is going to say that this isn't a lake on Mars.



And these aren't trees or bushes.

“Objects about 25 centimeters across are resolved on this image spanning about one kilometer”

I hate when they use these measurements because I have no idea what they mean. I cannot get any idea of the size I am looking at.

And their explanation, although I’m sure correct, does not seem correct. The dark stains appear to be standing freely in the air and do not look at all as if they are sliding down a sand dune.

Useless to me.

Looks like a Martian ski slope.

Very cool. I set it as my new desktop. Replaces the ‘moonbow waterfall’ pic of last week(?). Thanks.

Wait a minute, now; carbon dioxide ice? But every AGW proponent swears that CO2 causes warming, whats up with the dry ice? < /sarc >
