40 days and counting. The long wait is almost over!
I wonder whether we will get enough data to test new simulation theories like this one. http://space.newscientist.com/article/mg19...solar-wind.html What do you expect from this first flyby? |

First of all, I didn't say that that crater was a caldera. I simply stated we need a much closer look at it. We need to gather all the facts on the ground. I merely suggested that it appears it could be one, not that it is one.
I am extremely aware of what both impact craters and calderas look like. I stand by my previous statement 100%. I was correct about the glacial features on Mars too. Nobody believed me about that either until recently when much of my suspicions were substantiated. This time I'm not stating anything as fact. We should keep an open mind, until we analyze all the data. I know that a variety of processes can make some of these features. Let's gather all the facts we can before we make a final determination. |
