Samples of Martian soil, which were analyzed by instruments of Curiosity Rover, contain a large set of chemicals, however, traces of organic materials not found yet. This was reported by the jet propulsion Laboratory of NASA, which experts lead the mission of the unit. According to them, Curiosity discovered many different chemicals in low concentrations. Among them - a substance containing water, sulfur and chlorine.

To open a new land, but the "close" it, i.e. to prove that that does not exist is more complicated. Recently, however, scientists from Australia managed to do it. A group of researchers has been able to prove that sandy island in the coral sea, although he noted on many maps, is actually a product of the imagination of cartographers.

American billionaire, co-founder Elon Musk, SpaceX announced the development of the rocket engine, intended for a flight to Mars. According to his calculations, the price "diversion" there is only one colonist should be half a million dollars. The trip is planned exclusively at the expense of future "Martians".

The name of Richard Hoagland-known to those interested in the problem of finding intelligent life in the Universe. It is the founder and chief specialist independent research centre for monitoring the activities of NASA (National Aeronautics and space), which is called the Enterprise Mission. Its task is to find out what discoveries made by NASA's Solar system over the past half century, hidden under the "top secret".

On Thursday, the jet propulsion Laboratory (JPL) NАSА, which experts led by the research mission of the apparatus Curiosity, issued an official statement that the rumors and speculation about "important discoveries"allegedly made by the Rover to the red planet, do not correspond to reality.

Europe is running a race with the climate. To reach global agreement on reducing greenhouse gas emissions little hope, and by 2100, the temperature would likely increase by 3 or 4 C compared to pre-industrial levels. We must have time to prepare.

As recent events have shown, even the world Bank want to understand the trajectory of global warming. There are several ways, but most rely on such factors as the climate sensitivity. Method rough, and simple: a doubling of the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide, the average temperature on the planet increases to a certain value.

Data spacecraft Cassini linked seasonal shift in sunlight with a full change (and unexpected heights) circulation of the atmosphere of the moon of Saturn the Titan: at the South pole on change to a recent upwelling came lowering of air masses. Thus the key to circulation of the atmosphere of Titan was it the sunlight, underlines the study's lead author Nick Tenby from Bristol University (UK).

A retired biologist NASA has no doubt that confirmed his discovery of 36 years ago on Mars is life

Dry valleys McMurdo, Antarctica may seem one of the least hospitable places on Earth. It is a cold desert where only the wind searches rocky land and water exists only in the form of ice, the remaining including those times when the valley was covered by the ocean. In short, it's so sad area of the planet that NASA decided to simulate Martian conditions.

As shown by a new simulation of the upper atmosphere of Pluto, it goes so far from the planet that some stray molecules can fly even to Charon. The thickness of the atmosphere dwarf planet estimated at approximately 10 390 km, that is about 4.5 diameter of Pluto, which covers the distance to Charon more than half.

Co-founder of SpaceX billionaire Elon Musk wants to help create a Mars colony, in which lived about 80 thousand people. Musk expects that delivery of one colonizer on the Red planet can deliver half a million dollars at the expense of the traveler.

Scientists have managed to solve one of the most intriguing mysteries of water: they found out how it can save the information about those who inhabit it. It turned out that some organic molecules trapped in the water, can be stored in it long enough. This is strange - in theory, they must be immediately destroyed. But for some reason this does not happen.

December 3 the conference of the American geophysical Union in San Francisco, NASA officials working with Curiosity Rover, will make, according to them, a very important statement. In one interview the project Manager John Grotzinger hinted that this may be the detection of organic molecules. However, commentators wishful thinking.

It seems incredible that the Earth can talk. Voice in 60 registers she constantly makes sounds, but to hear the eleventh octave impossible, sounds too low to detect people.
