Do you think that Mars might be undergoing global warming.

I was just looking at ..

The ice must be sublimating into the atmosphere. There are no melt
fluid run off channels. Isn't there occasionally suggestions of
run-off channels going down the side of some craters in sedimentary
formations.

Thanks for the interesting posting Ron. Why don't you ever write any
chatty stuff? We could use some global warming up here in chilly
Ottawa.

Best,

Hi Mike. First of all, water-scoured channels on Mars appear to be old,
very old. Mars's atmosphere is not currently dense enough to support
liquid water, and hasn't been for billions of years.


Oh really?

If you write stuff, add 'I think' or 'I repeat current concepts'.
But LOOK.
