I agree that these features must have gone through extremes to end up looking so gnarly (literally and figuratively). The rocks are shaped such that they could...
... The article itself was a big surprise. I thought it was interesting that it even mentioned "thread-like" features without any dismissive references to ...

My thoughts have been migrated in this direction for some time now. It appears the spherules 'attach' themselves to the bedrock. In the new sliced spheres,...
Yes and the story of water also will be one of tremendous news! There was a new pepsi commercial yesterday...had a tech supposed to be keeping an eye on a mars...
The big problem with the idea is that the ribs are too organized to have resulted from micro-organisms. If they went every which way, then it might be possible...
It ahs been postulated that the glass tunnels are bio-constructs. JD ... The big problem with the idea is that the ribs are too organized to haveresulted from...
hi Charles... Patterns are found everywhere in nature, from leaves on trees to honeycomb. Both are biological, not geological phenomena, and both exhibit...
... No, No, No! ;-) From the "before" and "after" micro images from sol 35, the two spheres on the right side of the image were about 3/5 to 3/4 buried into...
... I will have to think about that. My original thoughts were that they would not dissolve and grow in a 1 to 1 ratio, so that would explode the rock. On the...
In the folder BH1, in the photo section of this group, I have uploaded a crop from a colorized composit from Opportunity's pancam (filters L3, L4, & L7), taken...
The commercial guys are the most well informed people, probably better than we do. And they also know that the martian critters like to eat minerals (the...

My bad....you sure did! Good....I'm glad NASA didn't get the scoop :-) I'm sorry we didn't pick up on it Gordon....I guess we were too wrapped up in the sliced...
Then we should see evidence of repeated anomalies like this one. The camera has not produced the 'trick' prior to this, nor has the RAT. I think the trick is...
I made a reference to it also on Feb. 26 and I think before that too maybe (I thought I had anyway, I did put an enlargement of it on my web site though). Just...
I saw the enlargement on your website when you posted it Gordon, but through my own skeptical eye, it appeared to be a trick of light and shadow. Then we began...
