Martian Pond Scum?
[ via Joshua ] Evidence of brackish water on Mars. Not in the past, but now.
That water is probably brackish, the Wiezmann Institue’s found some varieties of bacteria that do well in such an environment.
I wonder if that’s permafrost melting under pressure as the billions of tons of rock atop it occasionaly shifts and settles.
Mars, baby, Mars. Let’s go now.
