Columbus Crater and Other Possible Paleolakes in Terra Sirenum, Mars
Introduction: Inferred paleolakes on the surface of Mars are key targets for astrobiology. To date, pale-olakes have been identified primarily based on mor-phologic evidence, including inlet and outlet channels, deltas, and horizontal bedding in closed basins [1-3]. Clay minerals have been identified in some of these settings, but these may be detrital [4]. Other alteration products such as eva...
متن کاملDiscovery of alunite in Cross crater, Terra Sirenum, Mars: Evidence for acidic, sulfurous waters
Cross crater is a 65 km impact crater, located in the Noachian highlands of the Terra Sirenum region of Mars (30°S, 158°W), which hosts aluminum phyllosilicate deposits first detected by the Observatoire pour la Minéralogie, L’Eau, les Glaces et l’Activitié (OMEGA) imaging spectrometer on Mars Express. Using high-resolution data from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, we examine Cross crater’s ba...
متن کاملAncient Hydrothermal Springs in Arabia Terra , Mars
Introduction: Hydrothermal springs are important astrobiological sites for several reasons: 1) On Earth, molecular phylogeny suggests that many of the most primitive organisms are hyperthermophiles, implying that life on this planet may have arisen in hydrothermal settings [1-3]; 2) on Mars, similar settings would have supplied energyand nutrient-rich waters in which early martian life may have...
متن کاملEvaluating Models of Crustal Cooling Using Crism Observations of Impact Craters in Terra Tyrrhena and Noachis Terra
Introduction: The persistence of lithospheric thickness variations from its earliest era provides constraints on the thermal evolution of Mars [1,2]. Under these constraints, plausible thermal evolution models require cooling of the crust that could be accomplished by either hydrothermal cooling in a fractured portion of the upper crust or the existence of a stable stratified mantle where heat-...
