Mars Photo Album - Candidate Landing Site

Its within our technical boundaries to start seriously thinking about permanent colonies on the moon and mars. And, incidentaly, this would be a most appropriate time to get everyone in on it. All countries and peoples. This should be an Earth event not a US event(even though I'm proud to be an American). Most Importantly, it will bring mankind a bit closer(Imagine an Israeli and an Arab standing next to each other on Mars!). And another important factor is the price. If all countries donate to get in on this permanent endeavor it won't hurt our pocketbooks as much. But the bottom line is the importance of exploration! Thanks. Steve

Miles – your converage of science and space is awesome – passionate... making it very real for us earth bound creatures! thank you!!!

Go Phoenix!

why not include a link to a hi-res version of the pic?

one thing i hate about these sort of articles is the lack of relevant links, i mean, it IS the internet for gosh sakes!

you typed "the the" in the first paragraph.. just letting you know

From the Executive Producer:

Thanks Lee!! You get extra points for paying close attention. Problem fixed., The extra "the" has been expunged.

Understand that we send a small-but-hardy band of professionals out to produce taped stories, live TV shots, web pieces, blogs, and one-hour specials They work their brains out, and I can tell you from first-hand experience that their brains are large. They are working long hours, while I'm sitting here watching the Red Sox lose their second straight on a one-hitter, and occasionally monitoring the SciTechBlog......

The extra "the" has been removed.

Come back tomorrow, it's going to be awesome.

Anyone hear what Richard Hoagland has to say about any of this? 🙂

Nuclear waste my contaminate planets
by land rovers and may have an effect to earth.

We'll watch this tomorrow, can't wait to see the final touchdown. I have watch the last touchdown tru cnn. GOOD LUCK.

We already have a Mars Base and Moon Base. this is just naza'a way of letting us get closer to the truth that all this is just to cover up the fact that we really are 50 years ahead of this crap. pppleeeease

There's another series of NASA photos, most are quite bizarre. See the PowerPoint Presentation here:

The above should be linked in the main blog.

It's always disappointing to me when we have these great new, high-res pictures available and all that's on the CNN site are tiny versions we have to strain to see. Is there some reason why there can't be larger versions we can look at by merely clicking on these near-thumnail images? Thanks.

I have often thought that there are so many stories that would capture America's interest if only promoted. Instead of hounding people and having freak shows like Larry King normally has, why not have CNN spend a concerted effort to engender interest in subjects like these. A serial killer or a bunch of groupies in Texas get hundreds of times the coverage as stories like this one. There are intriguing stories to be had about new energy sources, new inventions, etc., it just takes a little more homework and effort to produce–you guys at CNN got the money, do you have the will and skill?

Amazing...one pixel represents 30cm in that photo....too kewl.

It is only a matter of time before one these probes finds the smoking gun. With all we know about Mars the question in my mind is not if life existed there, but when?

We are destroying and polluting earth and we are now going to do the same to the moon and mars , wherever a humanbeing living ,it brings only distruction.
to the one who said "Imagine an Israeli and an Arab standing next to each other on Mars"
No i can NOT image that , do we need another war on mars?
No thank you.

Don't you ever step on another planet , leave them alone in peace 🙂

Follow the water is a fairly new term used after the successful landing of Opportunity and Spirit rovers. Not too long ago before the twin rovers if you said follow the water in terms of exploring Mars most scientists would have looked at you sideways.

Here is a link to a read-only blog with images from Space.com message board that has some scientist still looking at us today sideways.

Simulations Show Liquid Water Could Exist on Mars

Josef J.,

You need to stay away from stressful subjects. Leave the complicated stuff to those of us with the capacity to function normally under challenging conditions. There's a reason you failed science class. Try knitting or solitaire.

Where will we able to find Miles tonight? Is this an online showing or on the CNN Channel on TV? I want to make sure I don't miss a second of this!!
Thanks

I certainly believe that life exists elsewhere in the universe. But on Mars? It would have had to develop quickly within very narrow windows of opportunity and then adapt very quickly to rapidly changing, very extreme and hostile conditions. So I'm not so certain. It will be totally awesome, in both the modern and the traditional senses of that word, if we find it. But even if we don't, it is already totally awesome getting to understand the geology and weather and overall make-up and behaviour of another planet. Go NASA, go ESA! GO PHOENIX! YES!!!

Your picture does not look like anything on Mars, but rather like a pile of junk

I hope CNN will divide their televised screen so that we can watch several different groups of scientists "watch" the 7 minute SOFT landing without ANY lame comments from/by the news folks; this will allow those of us that have taken part in prior missions to share the moment without bla bla bla.
There will be plenty of time afterward for all the comments and interviews.

Thanks, Miles, for your fine commentary on the Landing – Your enthusiasm and understanding of the process was impressive- BUT I'd recommend you watch (and listen) to a baseball game or two – perhaps one with commentary by Vin Scully or another master – you'd find that perhaps the most important rule to observe when covering a great moment, is knowing when BE SILENT and let the event speak for itself. It was disappointing that there were so few seconds when you were willing (perhaps because of a Network Mandate?) to let the NASA spokespeople give the final countdown, letting the drama play out, without constant commentary, on the event.

Still, thanks CNN & Miles for providing us with some Martian Prime Time.

Wonderful blog! I found it while surfing around on Yahoo News. Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News? I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Many thanks

Thank you for any other informative blog. The place else may I get that type of information written in such a perfect means? I've a venture that I am simply now operating on, and I have been at the glance out for such information.

Yet another thing to mention is that an online business administration program is designed for college students to be able to without problems proceed to bachelors degree education. The 90 credit certification meets the lower bachelor diploma requirements and when you earn your own associate of arts in BA online, you will have access to the newest technologies on this field. Some reasons why students have to get their associate degree in business is because they are interested in this area and want to receive the general training necessary ahead of jumping into a bachelor education program. Thanks alot : ) for the tips you provide with your blog.

One thing I would like to say is always that car insurance termination is a feared experience so if you're doing the appropriate things as being a driver you simply will not get one. Some people do get the notice that they are officially dropped by their particular insurance company they have to scramble to get more insurance after having a cancellation. Affordable auto insurance rates tend to be hard to get from a cancellation. Knowing the main reasons pertaining to auto insurance canceling can help individuals prevent losing one of the most crucial privileges offered. Thanks for the ideas shared by means of your blog.
