Tiny Bubbles Could Hold Clues To Martian Volcanos HistoryBlacksburg VA (SPX) Jun 09, 2004 
By summer 2005, researchers in the Fluids Research Laboratory at Virginia Tech will be able to look for evidence of water on Mars by examining submicroscopic bubbles in martian meteorites, determine whether fluids and silicate melts trapped in volcanic rock can help predict future eruptions, and locate buried mineral deposits using data from surface rocks. |

Travel To Mars Could Be Harmful
Moscow (UPI) Jun 07, 2004A Russian scientist says manned Martian flights could render a male astronaut sterile, shrink his musculature and weaken his bones. Valeri Polyakov's comments came during an international symposium on gravitational physiology that began Monday at Moscow's Russian Academy of Sciences, Novosti reported. Fleshing Out Martian Proteins 
Moffet Field CA (SPX) Jun 08, 2004Imagine having a modern biology lab on another planet. Then imagine putting that lab on a tiny silicon chip. That portable concept - when applied to detecting the building blocks of life, amino acids - is being investigated for future Mars missions. |
