Unusual Silica Rich Soil Discovered on Mars (18 Dec 2007)
It is my understanding there are other means to create silica.is usually created by either volcanic steam or a hot spring.

Series of Storms Shrouds Mars in Dust
Can you tell me how Mars with an atmospheric pressure of .007 bars as compared to Earth’s pressure of 1.013, how that kind of atmospheric pressure can sustain a storm and a storm claimed to increase in intensity to be a planet wide storm? Logic says it is just not going to happen. http://www.msss.co...

I see an order and pattern in the chaos, which leads to the only possible conclusion, intelligent design. Something has done something to the surface of Europa and all the geologies and astrophyicist can’t with any accuracy explain it. The challenge is not time kovil but proper data, proper research...

It looks like the majority have missed the information about the Tunguska explosion from a Dr. Valery Uvarov, of Russia's National Security Academy, a 5 part article starting with part 1 an interview. But then again, I am not surprised The Installation, An Interview with Valery Uvarov. Interview Mys...

BMA an interesting thing about cratering simulation programs, if you read the scientific papers published for example by Bottke, Richardson et. al. , they state in their paper the simulator has a flaw and cannot accurately recreate the impacts. References please. What is the flaw (that they state i...

Columbia pieces sitting on the ground, some metal penetrated the ground but no craters, meteors going through roofs of house, through a car trunk and sitting on the floor or bouncing off a photocop...
