Grace Sees Rapid Spread In Greenland Ice LossWashington DC (SPX) Mar 26, 2010 Ice loss from the Greenland ice sheet, which has been increasing during the past decade over its southern region, is now moving up its northwest coast, according to a new international study. The research indicates the ice-loss acceleration began moving up the northwest coast of Greenland staring in late 2005. The team drew their conclusions by comparing data from NASA's Gravity and Recovery Climate Experiment satellite system, or GRACE, with continuous GPS measurements made from long-term sites o ... read more |

Pasadena CA (JPL) Mar 12, 2010Opportunity has finished its circumnavigation campaign around "Concepcion" crater. Numerous targeted images were taken of rocks around the crater but no new rock targets were chosen to be analyzed using the in-situ (contact) instruments of the rover's robotic arm (IDD). During the last leg around the crater on Sol 2172 (March 4, 2010), the third and final checkout for the AEGIS automated t ... more Northrop Grumman Demonstrates LITENING Targeting System On US Navy F/A-18E/F

Lava Likely Made River-Like Channel On MarsGreenbelt MD (SPX) Mar 08, 2010 Flowing lava can carve or build paths very much like the riverbeds and canyons etched by water, and this probably explains at least one of the meandering channels on the surface of Mars. These results were presented on March 4, 2010 at the 41st Lunar and Planetary Science Conference by Jacob Bleacher at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md. Whether channels on Mars were formed by water or by lava has been debated for years, and the outcome is thought to influence the likelihood of fin ... read more |
