Competing hypothesis: Chemistry of rocks is determined by volcanic processes. Supporting data: Sulfate salts and jarosite mineral were found in the rock. On Earth they are made in standing water (possibly during evaporation). Quote from Steve Squyres: "Next piece of evidence comes from APXS. We found it looked like a lot of sulfur.
I'd like to land on the surface of Europa – the most likely place in the solar system for life. And third, I'd like to float a boat on the methane lakes of Titan." [22] Steltzner is the chief engineer of the Mars 2020 project, which launched the Perseverance rover to Mars in July 2020. [17]

Researchers confirmed what lies at the core of Mars. Using seismic data from NASA’s InSight lander, they determined things like composition, state, and density. Once and for All, Scientists Have ...
In 2009, this center was fused with a NASA University Research Center to form the Optical Science Center for Applied Research (OSCAR). [2] Melikechi is also the principal investigator of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) – Maximizing Access for Research Careers and the DSU Idea Network for Biomedical Research programs.
Lee's research focuses on Mars, asteroids, and impact craters, in particular in connection with the history of water on planets and the possibility of extraterrestrial life. He is known internationally for his work on Moon and Mars analogs in the Arctic, Antarctica, and other extreme environments on Earth. He is the author and co-author of over ...
