New light on Mars methane mysteryPosted By Judson Mitchell |
What seems to be missing in all the discussions on Mars' surface features, methane, etc., is the possibility that Mars may have been a methane planet at one time. The mania to prove that life exists on Mars masks other plausible explanations of surface features, etc. It would not be surprising that Mars has some water, but to propose that oceans existed boggles my mind unless Mars was once much closer to the sun. We merely need to take a look at the earth's history to see the problems of some of the proposals on Mars' climatic history.
Can someone direct me to a credible study that considers Mars as a possible methane planet?
