Do You Want To Visit The Planet Mars?. Take A Look At All These Photos.

The photos are coming, and are added to the mosaic with the rest.
You can use the top menu, and choose what you want to see.

There is much to see and spend time entertaining.

A panoramic photo in color.

View From the Gale Crater where it landed the Curiosity



Another black and white photo.



In this photo from a color panorama image taken by NASA's Curiosity rover
shows the effects of the descent stage's rocket engines blasting the ground

" You can see that the interior of Mars is gray "



Enjoy the photos.

Hmmm.

Newt Gingrich was ridiculed by state-controlled USA media for wanting to put man on Mars during prez campaign.

At least we were brave enough to send R2D2.:cheer:

Really cool photos. Thanks Wokkonno.

 

For a 360-degree, SCANNABLE panorama compiled from (but not by) NASA, go here:

Boggles my tiny brain, it does.

(of course, that's assuming they really landed this thing on Mars as opposed to just lugging it out behind some rest-stop on Interstate 80 somewhere in New Mexico, U.S.A. Choose your illusion, as they used to say.)

 

There was a lot of us who agreed with him, Ardo; that is, as long as it was HIM that got put on Mars. andalaugh:

 

by the time inter-planetary travel is made affordable, i'll prolly be long dead...

 

I often wonder that if Mars did have life at one time if there are some viruses frozen underneath the ice caps and if those viruses would pose any danger to earth.

 

Mars is a dead planet, a planet is fossilized.

A great desert of spherical shape, with large amounts of all
kinds of gases less oxygen, which is the main gas, for life to
exist anywhere in the universe.

That oxygen can be in three different ways, liquid, gaseous or solid.

The planet Mars has a very weak atmosphere, any phenomenon
that occurs in that atmosphere, everything quickly escapes
into space.

The ice, which is seen in the photos, in the planet's surface
no contains oxygen can be composed of any other solid gases.

Chances are that while it was forming the planet Earth, Mars
may have had life though it is quite hard to believe, because
it is far away from the sun.

On Mars the atmosphere have almost all atmospheric
phenomena we know on Earth there are, as well as not
originate on planet earth.

Sometimes drafts occur on the surface and raise much
land, that "Air" has no oxygen.

These " air " currents can be generated by solar radiation
magnetic fields that the SUN when it hits the surface of
Mars in some areas.

On Mars can be 30,40 or 50 degrees Celsius below zero and
no freezing, no such phenomenon on Mars because the
atmosphere is very weak and there is no oxygen for these
phenomena originating and everything quickly escapes
into space.

On Mars, it is difficult that the surface temperatures of
the planet are above 0 ° Celsius. They are always below
the zero.

On Mars as anywhere in the universe, pass things that
are completely different to how we know it on planet earth.

The solar radiation on Mars are 3000 times more deadly
than on Earth.

On planet Earth, we have a layer called ionosphere, which
is what protects us from all solar radiation, and not let
the oxygen from escaping into space, as is the planet
Mars and we are not all dead, and continue life on
this planet.​
