The February 16, 2007, issue of Science has the first peer-reviewed paper on MRO results: a HiRISE-related paper that also made the cover.
Fracture-Controlled Paleo-Fluid Flow in Candor Chasma, Mars Chris H. Okubo and Alfred S. McEwen Science 315, 983-985 (2007) Abstract Full Text Supporting Online Material Note: the three links above will become active in a couple of hours after the embargo is lifted. For non-subscribers to Science, I'm not sure if Chris Okubo is going to make the paper available on his publications page but you may wish to keep an eye on it.

See also the EurekAlert release (Orbiter provides new hints of past groundwater flows on Mars) from the "The New Mars: Habitability of a Neighbor World" Symposium at the 2007 AAAS Annual Meeting being held in San Francisco.

Fascinating and brilliant news!
 But I wonder who's going to break the news to the researchers that the only fluid that could percolate through the ridges near Soup Dragon is not water, but blue string soup...?

Haven't had time to read all this yet but I notice the New Scientist article linked in post 3 mentions evidence of fluid flow identified in Victoria Crater in the form of cemented fractures in the eastern rim rocks. Has this been mentioned before?

The Okubo and McEwen paper is now available (349 Kb PDF). Also, for those who don't have access to some of the hard-to-obtain journals, note that Okubo has made available a few more of his recent papers via his publications page. |
