Apparantly there has been a gully that has shown up on Mars in the last 7 years that has signs of sediment layed down as if water has flown through. The gully even has fingers at the lower end. Mars is very cold and all they've found so far is water in ice and vapor form. But now they think there may be water underground in liquid form that comes to the surface periodically, making these river lines before it evaporates from the cold temps. If so there is a good possibility of microbial life. What I immediately thought when reading this is Mars may seem super macho but he has feelings underneath that cold hard exterior. After all, anger is a passionate emotion that is hot, not cold. Perhaps he puts up a hard shell to protect his soft interior just like Cancer and Capricorn.

That's an interesting analogy, aquarianessence. Thank you. Do you have a link to this recent discover? Kim

I saw that on the news last night. www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200612/s1805976.htmIf you leave ice on the skin long enough, it gives the sensation of burning (both fire and ice will damage the cells of the skin by a different process but they feel like they're burning all the same)... just a thought.

space.about.com/od/mars/a/marswater120606.htm This is an astronomy newsletter you can subscribe to. Notice the picture here:http://space.about.com/od/mars/a/mars_complete.htm?nl=1 has the shape of an inverted heart, further supporting his soft side. Heres some data on Mars: * MEAN RADIUS: 3388.0 km * MASS: 0.108 (Earth=1) * DENSITY: 3.94 (g/cm^3) * GRAVITY: 0.380 (Earth=1) * ORBIT PERIOD: 686.98 (Earth days) * ROTATION PERIOD: 1.026 (Earth days) * SEMIMAJOR AXIS OF ORBIT: 1.524 au * ECCENTRICITY OF ORBIT: 0.093 Right away I noticed the master numbers in the mean radius, 33, 88 and 22 as the total. I know this is an earth centered system of measurement but I don't think a primitive energy, unevolved energy could carry those numbers. Also notice 11 hidden in the gravity.
