New Faces for Mars

Mars often referred to as the rose-cheeked Planet, has long been a subject of fascination speculation about the existence of Martians was widespread other(a) in the twentieth century for example, issues of Scientific American in 1920 expound possible communication with Mars using search lights and giant mirrors to study sunlight (Greeley 115). According to Greeley (2001), other proposals for communicating including digging huge trenches in the form of mathematical symbols in the Sahara Desert these trenches were to be filled with lamp oil and signal aflame to signal Mars. Based on Greeley (2001), although these ideas were never carried out, they reflected unrelenting public interest in Mars.Telescopic observations of Mars began in the later(a) nineteenth century and provided fuel for speculation about the nature of Mars. lay exploration of mars was initiated with the Mariner flyby in 1965 although it took tho 22 close-up pictures back a tiny fraction of the surface and show ed the presence of a lunar like craters (Greeley 115). According to Greeley (2001), the geologic diversity of Mars was fin aloney revealed by the Mariner 9 spacecraft. The Viking kick was the most complicated unmanned mission flown in the solar system according to Greeley consisting of two orbiters and two landers. And in 1997, Mars Pathfinder landed and returned information for a third come out on Mars these missions have set the stage for to a greater extent interlacing future missions including the return of samples to earth.It has been notice in the beginning that more craters be of age(p) with some around 19 km across. Volcanism is also fascinating on Mars, which is said to have lava flowing but Im non sure if this was really true. It is also said that the Red Planet has no plate tectonics and its outer layer doesnt move horizontally, only its outer layer moves vertically.As for Mars other features, it is said that weathering and corroding are observed with dominated du st storms global dust storms and anchor dunes. It has also been said that there has been past flowing pissing before but this argument hasnt been verified yet.As for the aliens wearing helmet, I doubt it because as of now there hasnt been any findings of its existence. perchance this might be true if water will be discovered in Mars.Due to advance research and technologies, I think that as time passes by, more and more findings could be discovered. If before, images are vague and cannot be distinguished easily, today, more and more sophisticated tools are being utilize to capture Mars images.Now, Mars tectonic features are more elaborated compared before. It has also been found out that Mars volcanism is widespread and more diverse and young.Despite a virtual generation of studies based on newly devised technologies of space, Mars remains something of an enigma to man fly-by, orbiting and landing missions by increasingly sophisticated space probes have revealed more about the Red planet in the last thirty years that had been gleaned in all previous centuries, but there are still numerous mysteries to be solved (Kargel ix).According to Kargel (2004), they range from the question of where Phobos and Deimos, the diminutive Martian Satellites, came from whereabouts of water which once sculptured much of the planets surface these many more questions will only be answered after years, perhaps decades, of causal agent and because the planet and its satellites preserve much of the ancient history of the solar system, they are important questions of science.Works CitedKargel, J.
