It Came To Earth 2.1 Billion Years Ago: First Meteorite Linked To Martian Crust | |
| <<TIMEWATCHER>> Offer Upgrade  User ID: 25511458  United States01/03/2013 03:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | After extensive analyses by a team of scientists led by Carl Agee at the University of New Mexico, researchers have identified a new class of Martian meteorite that likely originated from the Mars’s crust. It is also the only meteoritic sample dated to 2.1 billion years ago, the early era of the most recent geologic epoch on Mars, an epoch called the Amazonian. The meteorite was found to contain an order of magnitude more water than any other Martian meteorite. Researchers from the Carnegie Institution (Andrew Steele, Marilyn Fogel, Roxane Bowden, and Mihaela Glamoclija) studied carbon in the meteorite and have shown that organic carbon (macromolecular) similar to that seen in other Martian meteorites is also found in this meteorite. The research is published in the January 3, 2013, issue of Science Express. The unusual Martian meteorite, Northwest Africa (NWA) 7034, is the first meteorite that scientists have found linked to the Martian crust LINK: [link to www.ciw.edu] GLP Disclaimer DON'T BELIEVE A DAMN WORD YOU READ ON THIS WEBSITE!
