Fire And Ice: Mars Images Reveal Recent Volcanic And Glacial Activity (climate change)

“Mars is very dynamic,” said Head, lead author of one of the Nature reports. “We see that the climate change and geological forces that drive evolution on Earth are happening there.”

But, but I thought only humans caused climate change.

Mars is very dynamic. The shape and flow of this deposit near a Martian mountain almost 4 km. tall suggests ice-rich glacial movement. The image, taken on the eastern rim of the Hellas Basin, was made by the Mars Express High-Resolution Stereo Camera. (Photo: European Space Agency)

The more we learn, the harder it is to reconcile our earlier ignorance.

Sometimes people just HAVE to change their view of things.

"Little green men" never were.

In a poll taken at a European Space Agency conference last month, 75 percent of scientists believe bacteria once existed on Mars and 25 percent believe it might still survive there.

HMmmm...

I wonder what 'percentage' of these 'scientists' are firmly in the Evolution camp??

Please make the connection: What has evolution got to do with the belief that bacteria once existed on Mars?

Women and minorities hurt worse......Of course, it's Bush's fault

"Glaciers moved from the poles to the tropics 350,000 to 4 million years ago."

"In a depression on the volcano, researchers found glacial deposits estimated to be 5 to 24 million years old."

350,000-4,000,000 years ???

5,000,000-24,000,000 years ???

That's quite a gap in their guess don't ya think. Makes ya wonder if they pick lottery numbers the same way, out of a hat. It would be more believable if they would just say they don't know how long ago.

But I thought ALL scientists were firmly in the evolution camp, real scientists at least.

[RunningWolf]

I don't know or care till they force the issue on me. One thing is certain, they don't know what they will find, but then they do, it will only be 'more evidence' for evo.

I like the pictures of the planets and theories of each planet.

[mlc9852]

All of life came from bacteria.

[Clara Lou]

Oh.

[mlc9852]

LOL - I didn't need my sarcasm tag, did I?

[Clara Lou]

LOL--no, you didn't. And I guess I didn't need to elaborate any further in my comment.

...as he aims us back to the surface of Earth's Moon and then on to the Planet Mars early in this century.

Bringing those still living in the 7th Century A.D. here on Earth...

...along for the ride.


Amazing times, these,

"I wonder what 'percentage' of these 'scientists' are firmly in the Evolution camp??"

It'd be pretty certain that the number is 100% What's your point? And why are you putting quotation marks around the word scientist?

[MineralMan]

Amazing photo. Nice mudflow.

"All of life came from bacteria."

Very good. Bacteria or some other unicellular lifeform. You're learning.

[Clara Lou]

I was wondering about the ones around 'percentage,' too.

[sig229]

Let's see, in the 70's it was global cooling and in the 90's global warming! Please somebody make up my mind!
