Been busy with other things for a while, so it's nice to be back and see all the photo imaging work on the site going from strength to strength
![]() I think a lot of you guys would really enjoy "Curiosity On Mars:First Results" 3 part x approx 2 hr presentations at the EuroGeosciences Union General Assembly published on the EGU Channel on YouTube on May16th. Plenty of good listening for the weekend! Although I enjoy the NASA press briefings, it's great to hear key mission scientists talking full-on to their peers. The talks travel along at a nice fast thought provoking pace! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPbbhfGg0nc Admin: Moved post from 'First Drill' thread. |

Oops! I completely misread the coordinates of the granitoid exposures in Syrtis Major. The correct description of the location is that there are two exposures contained within a single area that is bounded by a line running from 61.8 to 65.9 degrees East longitude and a line running from 18.4 to 20.5 degrees North latitude. By the way, the total area of exposures with significant concentrations is 19 square kilometers.
Sorry for the screw up. |

Sorry for the screw up. curious to see if the granite would be positioned relative to Mars' magnetic features perhaps suggesting such subduction zones were positioned according to plate spreading as indicated by remnant fields..? but if i'm reading the coordinates correctly thats around Isidis.. |
