Liquid water flowing
in central Aram Chaos in Mars?I think so! If Mars
Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) CRISM instrument confirms the
hypothesis the central Aram Chaos area at 21.15W, 3.27N (IAU
1994) will be the prime candidate in search for life.
Southern craters: 'black oil' oozing
from crater walls is still a mystery.
If you are not afraid of large files check out this 500MB
mosaic of a
crater at 4.67W, 64.54S. There is evidence foe perennial
freezing and
thawing, you can even see
waterline erosion on the rocks, except that it is too cold
for water and there is no basin in the 'lake'! According to MOLA
the 'lake' slopes horridly and it is too cold for liquid water
based on THEMIS observations.

Can dark matter and
dark energy actually be effects of quantum gravity?I think yes!
Dark matter will remain an embarrassment until detected, a
superficial construct like ether. Perhaps Lorenz was right after
all: CMB dipole allows defining a preferred frame of reference
and Bohmian
Mechanics is more elegant than
Copenhagen interpretation.
Real-time 4-channel
music synthesis on PIC18 series is not
just a toy.
The concept is being developed into a professional quality
multi-channel synthesis and mixing solution: why spin from
scratchy 12" vinyl or scrappy stereo CD when you can spin from
multi-channel DVD and have your drum and bass lines mixed
separately and pitch-corrected?
