My son discovered obvious evidence of glaciers that existed in the Northern regions of Mars. They may have disappeared only a few million years ago. He said that it was evidence that Mars has warmer, wetter periods when there is liquid water on the surface.

BTW, he did this at least a year before papers were published using the same data.

He was taking an undergrad course in remote sensing for geology. He found all the evidence using satellite photos.

Now, only a few years later, he’s making more money than his old man. In oil exploration, of course.

My offer is still open. I bet all takers $100 each that we find life, at least microbes, on Mars.

Any takers?

It’s a good bet to make, IMHO.

The people on Jupiter told me that everyone on Mars moved away a long time ago.

When is the payoff date if no life is found? I would bet you that we don’t find life within five years on Mars.
