Talk:Geology of Mars

message: This is the only science article using this word Areology! The other sources in the net are edu servers of some universities which have more advertising character than scientific.
So lets ask the real question: Where das areology come from, and should it go the way all phantasy word should go in wikipedia? --Stone 18:08, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I just added a section on rocks/minerals; however I hope to break this down into a short paragraph and link to something else.  Eventually, I hope to write a major article on rocks/minerals according to the landers.  I was waiting until the end of the Rover missions, but Spirit just goes on forever.Jimmarsmars (talk) 17:44, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

message: Just switched the "Water on Mars" section, which was empty, for a more generic "Sedimentology" section. Lets us have a few sentences on the various sediment depositional features on the Martian surface, which were otherwise overlooked. Tried to keep it tight as I could for length. A picture of Eberswalde (crater) (or equivalent) might be appropriate, but I left it for now. DanHobley (talk) 03:29, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

message: More plate tectonics evidence  -- 76.65.128.252 (talk) 09:38, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I saw this too. I wasn't all that impressed. The evidence is pretty circumstantial; he's essentially just got (pretty good) evidence for widespread but small scale transtensional faulting in the V. Marineris, but then there's a jump to "...and I think there's largescale (>>100 km) offset too", and from there to "...big offsets = plate tectonics". No-one would dispute there's tectonics (i.e., faulting) on Mars, including neotectonics (there was a paper by Gerald Roberts some time recently on this), but "plate tectonics" implies a *globally* integrated system, which he manifestly hasn't shown. I think it's worth noting this has shown up in Lithosphere too, not Science, Nature, or something with a decent impact factor or track record of publishing planetary science (i.e., I think this probably got a light ride through review?). We could mention this study somewhere in the article in passing, but in my mind there's little point in going to town on it. DanHobley (talk) 15:50, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
