civilization on mars

The possibility of life on Mars, both past and present. Despite recent findings, the spectrum of views "educated" varies considerably, with groups who argue that life on Mars is impossible, and another group that says that life on Mars is a proven fact.

Although the general consensus of the scientific community dismisses the possibility of present life on Mars, some questions remain whether life ever existed on Mars when the atmosphere was denser and liquid water existed in abundance.

Mars in 100 years

In a millennium breathe in the atmosphere of Mars as they do today on Earth humans were established there, would be lighter and 50 percent higher than here.
Far from a science fiction story, the space race to find traces of life on Mars or elements confirm that existed in the past liquid water on its surface has begun to change the image that had the red planet.
Today we know that is capable of accommodating ocean, rivers, lakes, forests, climates and ecosystems that would make this desert planet livable, but not only that arrived to colonize the first "Martians" from land could be 50 percent higher than humans, lighter and musculoskeletal system very different.
The exploration of that planet, currently has two space missions, the Mars-Express, the European Space Agency, and led by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA, for its acronym in English), which managed to send to successfully the twin robots Spirit and Opportunity, whose mission is to locate any trace of liquid water existed on the Martian surface, and thus the possibility of finding life.
Demonstrate that the red planet once had water on its surface "would be a great discovery, because it could support the hypothesis we have that life existed at some point" and "different kinds of organisms," said Rafael Navarro Gonzalez, a researcher Institute of Nuclear Sciences of the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico and a consultant for the NASA space missions to Mars.
Present vital Navarro, an expert in analytical chemistry, atmospheric and planetary, said the recent discoveries of the Mars-Express, which confirm the presence of frozen water in Mars' southern polar cap, "also are important because they indicate that present one of the essentials for life to have had in the past, plus it surely could have water in the subsoil, although so far no direct evidence.

"The secret garden"

 Author:
("The Secret Garden") is a book written by Frances Hodgson Burnett in 1910, adapted to film and television numerous times. Hodgson it was published from autumn 1910 in booklets. The book was complete in 1911. It is next to Little Lord Fauntleroy "his two best works.

Description:
the story of this book goes back to the early nineties, when I started writing a doctoral thesis in International Relations on the international promotion of human rights in the Arab world, as part of my studies at the Faculty of Political Science and Sociology at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB). Morocco outset seemed a particularly interesting case study, because of its proximity to Spain (and all that that implies), for the changes then taking place in that country. My interest in Morocco had begun with the reading of the writings of Professor Bernabe Lopez Garcia, arguably the leading Spanish specialist in Morocco today. This scholar has worked to bring the reality of the Arab world to our country from a suggestive and rich in nuances, and their work has paved the way for those who have followed this path.


 What type of plants are traditionally grown in english gardens

the english gardenThe English love their gardens, gardening books, gardening programs on television ... Maybe that's why some say that although they no longer believe in paradise, it does miss the Garden of Eden. In the English garden everything is under control but does not want help but notice. The first element of this game are the undulations of the terrain but done so softly that whole mountains artificial seem natural. Are gardens estabelcen relationship between empty and full but the natural relationships like space for some reason have not developed the plant item. These casts are based on the shaft axis French but their boundaries are irregular, making us believe that this gap is there by chance. The idea of ​​control of the territory of French axis is more subtle here, featuring architecture where the light escapes, for example.
The English landscape finally desenboca supremacist line represented by Capability Brown as he said, "the English landscape exotic landscapes busja not only improve the existing landscape." Capability doing these tasks to improve the country arguing that the territories were "capable" of being what he proposed.

Extinct? Many experts believe that the woodpecker that lives in the forests of South America, is an extinct species. Others say it still exists, and even a few ornithologists claim to have seen a live specimen. Solving this puzzle is the goal of the sightings regularly dock in the marshes of Arkansas.
