Test for Damp Ground at Mars' Seasonal Streaks Finds None
Jet Propulsion Laboratory
August 23, 2016

Seasonal dark streaks on Mars that have become one of the hottest topics 
in interplanetary research don't hold much water, according to the latest 
findings from a NASA spacecraft orbiting Mars.

The new results from NASA's Mars Odyssey mission rely on ground temperature, 
measured by infrared imaging using the spacecraft's Thermal Emission Imaging 
System (THEMIS). They do not contradict last year's identification of 
hydrated salt at these flows, which since their 2011 discovery have been 
regarded as possible markers for the presence of liquid water on modern 
Mars. However, the temperature measurements now identify an upper limit 
on how much water is present at these darkened streaks: about as much 
as in the driest desert sands on Earth.

When water is present in the spaces between particles of soil or grains 
of sand, it affects how quickly a patch of ground heats up during the 
day and cools off at night.

"We used a very sensitive technique to quantify the amount of water associated 
with these features," said Christopher Edwards of Northern Arizona University, 
Flagstaff. "The results are consistent with no moisture at all and set 
an upper limit at three percent water."

The features, called recurring slope lineae or RSL, have been identified 
at dozens of sites on Mars. A darkening of the ground extends downhill 
in fingerlike flows during spring or summer, fades away in fall and winter, 
then repeats the pattern in another year at the same location. The process 
that causes the streaks to appear is still a puzzle.

"Some type of water-related activity at the uphill end still might be 
a factor in triggering RSL, but the darkness of the ground is not associated 
with large amounts of water, either liquid or frozen," Edwards said. "Totally 
dry mechanisms for explaining RSL should not be ruled out."

He and Sylvain Piqueux of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, 
California, analyzed several years of THEMIS infrared observations of 
a crater-wall region within the large Valles Marineris canyon system on 
Mars. Numerous RSL features sit close together in some parts of the study 
region. Edwards and Piqueux compared nighttime temperatures of patches 
of ground averaging about 44 percent RSL features, in the area, to temperatures 
of nearby slopes with no RSL. They found no detectable difference, even 
during seasons when RSL were actively growing.

The report of these findings by Edwards and Piqueux has been accepted 
by the peer-reviewed Geophysical Research Letters and is available online.

There is some margin of error in assessing ground temperatures with the 
multiple THEMIS observations used in this study, enough to leave the possibility 
that the RSL sites differed undetectably from non-RSL sites by as much 
as 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit (1 Celsius degree). The researchers used that 
largest possible difference to calculate the maximum possible amount of 
water -- either liquid or frozen -- in the surface material.

How deeply moisture reaches beneath the surface, as well as the amount 
of water present right at the surface, affects how quickly the surface 
loses heat. The new study calculates that if RSL have only a wafer-thin 
layer of water-containing soil, that layer contains no more than about 
an ounce of water per two pounds of soil (30 grams water per kilogram 
of soil). That is about the same concentration of water as in the surface 
material of the Atacama Desert and Antarctic Dry Valleys, the driest places 
on Earth. If the water-containing layer at RSL is thicker, the amount 
of water per pound or kilogram of soil would need to be even less, to 
stay consistent with the temperature measurements.

Research published last year identified hydrated salts in the surface 
composition of RSL sites, with an increase during the season when streaks 
are active. Hydrated salts hold water molecules affecting the crystalline 
structure of the salt.

"Our findings are consistent with the presence of hydrated salts, because 
you can have hydrated salt without having enough for the water to start 
filling pore spaces between particles," Edwards said. "Salts can become 
hydrated by pulling water vapor from the atmosphere, with no need for 
an underground source of the water."

"Through additional data and studies, we are learning more about these 
puzzling seasonal features -- narrowing the range of possible explanations," 
said Michael Meyer. "It just shows us that we still have much to learn 
about Mars and its potential as a habitat for life."

The new study touches on additional factors that add to understanding 
of RSL.

-- If RSL were seasonal flows of briny water followed by evaporation, 
annual buildup of crust-forming salt should affect temperature properties. 
So the lack of a temperature difference between RSL and non-RSL sites 
is evidence against evaporating brines.

-- Lack of a temperature difference is also evidence against RSL being 
cascades of dry material with different thermal properties than the pre-existing 
slope material, such as would be the case with annual avalanching of powdery 
dust that accumulates from dusty air.

Arizona State University, Tempe, provided and operates the THEMIS camera, 
which records observations in both infrared and visible-light wavelengths. 
JPL, a division of Caltech, manages the Mars Odyssey project for NASA. 
Lockheed Martin Space Systems, Denver, built the orbiter and collaborates 
with JPL to operate it.

Updated (Aug. 26 at 11:00 a.m.) to correct the conversion to 30 grams 
of water per kilogram of soil as the upper limit on amount of water in 
the soil.

NASA Awards Launch Services Contract for Mars 2020 Rover Mission
Jet Propulsion Laboratory
August 25, 2016

NASA has selected United Launch Services LLC of Centennial, Colorado, 
to provide launch services for a mission that will address high-priority 
science goals for the agency's Journey to Mars.

Mars 2020 is targeted for launch in July 2020 aboard an Atlas V 541 rocket 
from Space Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. 
The rover will conduct geological assessments of its landing site on Mars, 
determine the habitability of the environment, search for signs of ancient 
Martian life, and assess natural resources and hazards for future human 
explorers.

Additionally, scientists will use the instruments aboard the rover to 
identify and collect samples of rock and soil, encase them in sealed tubes, 
and leave them on the surface of Mars for potential return to Earth by 
a future mission to the Red Planet.

The mission will build on the achievements of Curiosity and other Mars 
Exploration Program missions, and offer opportunities to deploy new capabilities 
developed through investments by NASA's Space Technology Program and Human 
Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate, as well as contributions 
from international partners.

The Mars 2020 rover mission presents new opportunities to learn how future 
human explorers could use natural resources available on the surface of 
the Red Planet. An ability to live off the land could reduce costs and 
engineering challenges posed by Mars exploration.

The total cost for NASA to launch Mars 2020 is approximately $243 million, 
which includes: the launch service; spacecraft and spacecraft power source 
processing; planetary protection processing; launch vehicle integration; 
and tracking, data and telemetry support.

NASA is on an ambitious journey to Mars that includes sending humans to 
the Red Planet. The robotic missions of NASA's Planetary Science Division 
are leading the way with the upcoming Mars 2020 rover, the InSight lander 
mission targeted for 2018, Opportunity and Curiosity rovers currently 
exploring the Martian surface, Odyssey and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter 
spacecraft currently orbiting the planet, and the Mars Atmosphere and 
Volatile Evolution Mission (MAVEN) orbiter, which is helping scientists 
understand what happened to the planet's atmosphere.

NASA's Launch Services Program at Kennedy Space Center in Florida will 
manage and oversee the Atlas V launch service for Mars 2020. The Mars 
2020 Project at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, 
manages the Mars 2020 spacecraft development for the Science Mission Directorate 
at NASA Headquarters in Washington.

Dawn Sets Course for Higher Orbit
Jet Propulsion Laboratory
August 31, 2016

After studying Ceres for more than eight months from its low-altitude 
science orbit, NASA's Dawn spacecraft will move higher up for different 
views of the dwarf planet.

Dawn has delivered a wealth of images and other data from its current 
perch at 240 miles (385 kilometers) above Ceres' surface, which is closer 
to the dwarf planet than the International Space Station is to Earth. 
Now, the mission team is pivoting to consider science questions that can 
be examined from higher up.

After Dawn completed its prime mission on June 30, having surpassed all 
of its scientific objectives at Vesta and at Ceres, NASA extended the 
mission to perform new studies of Ceres. One of the factors limiting Dawn's 
lifetime is the amount of hydrazine, the propellant needed to orient the 
spacecraft to observe Ceres and communicate with Earth. By going to a 
higher orbit at Ceres, Dawn will use the remaining hydrazine more sparingly, 
because it won't have to work as hard to counter Ceres' gravitational 
pull.

"Most spacecraft wouldn't be able to change their orbital altitude so 
easily. But thanks to Dawn's uniquely capable ion propulsion system, we 
can maneuver the ship to get the greatest scientific return from the mission," 
said Marc Rayman, chief engineer and mission director, based at NASA's 
Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California.

On Sept. 2, Dawn will begin spiraling upward to about 910 miles (1,460 
kilometers) from Ceres. The altitude will be close to where Dawn was a 
year ago, but the orientation of the spacecraft's orbit -- specifically, 
the angle between the orbit plane and the sun -- will be different this 
time, so the spacecraft will have a different view of the surface.

The mission team is continuing to develop the extended mission itinerary 
and will submit a full plan to NASA next month.

Dawn's mission is managed by JPL for NASA's Science Mission Directorate 
in Washington. Dawn is a project of the directorate's Discovery Program, 
managed by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. 
UCLA is responsible for overall Dawn mission science. Orbital ATK Inc., 
in Dulles, Virginia, designed and built the spacecraft. The German Aerospace 
Center, Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research, Italian Space 
Agency and Italian National Astrophysical Institute are international 
partners on the mission team. For a complete list of mission participants,

Ceres' Geological Activity, Ice Revealed in New Research
Jet Propulsion Laboratory
September 1, 2016

A lonely 3-mile-high (5-kilometer-high) mountain on Ceres is likely volcanic 
in origin, and the dwarf planet may have a weak, temporary atmosphere. 
These are just two of many new insights about Ceres from NASA's Dawn mission 
published this week in six papers in the journal Science.

"Dawn has revealed that Ceres is a diverse world that clearly had geological 
activity in its recent past," said Chris Russell, principal investigator 
of the Dawn mission, based at the University of California, Los Angeles.

A Temporary Atmosphere

A surprising finding emerged in the paper led by Russell: Dawn may have 
detected a weak, temporary atmosphere. Dawn's gamma ray and neutron (GRaND) 
detector observed evidence that Ceres had accelerated electrons from the 
solar wind to very high energies over a period of about six days. In theory, 
the interaction between the solar wind's energetic particles and atmospheric 
molecules could explain the GRaND observations.

A temporary atmosphere would be consistent with the water vapor the Herschel 
Space Observatory detected at Ceres in 2012-2013. The electrons that GRaND 
detected could have been produced by the solar wind hitting the water 
molecules that Herschel observed, but scientists are also looking into 
alternative explanations.

"We're very excited to follow up on this and the other discoveries about 
this fascinating world," Russell said.

Ahuna Mons as a Cryovolcano

Ahuna Mons is a volcanic dome unlike any seen elsewhere in the solar system, 
according to a new analysis led by Ottaviano Ruesch of NASA's Goddard 
Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland, and the Universities Space Research 
Association. Ruesch and colleagues studied formation models of volcanic 
domes, 3-D terrain maps and images from Dawn, as well as analogous geological 
features elsewhere in our solar system. This led to the conclusion that 
the lonely mountain is likely volcanic in nature. Specifically, it would 
be a cryovolcano -- a volcano that erupts a liquid made of volatiles such 
as water, instead of silicates. "This is the only known example of a cryovolcano 
that potentially formed from a salty mud mix, and that formed in the geologically 
recent past," Ruesch said.

For more details on this study, see:
http://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/2016/ceres-cryo-volcano

Ceres: Between a Rocky and Icy Place

While Ahuna Mons may have erupted liquid water in the past, Dawn has detected 
water in the present, as described in a study led by Jean-Philippe Combe 
of the Bear Fight Institute, Winthrop, Washington. Combe and colleagues 
used Dawn's visible and infrared mapping spectrometer (VIR) to detect 
probable water ice at Oxo Crater, a small, bright, sloped depression at 
mid-latitudes on Ceres.

Exposed water-ice is rare on Ceres, but the low density of Ceres, the 
impact-generated flows and the very existence of Ahuna Mons suggest that 
Ceres' crust does contain a significant component of water-ice. This is 
consistent with a study of Ceres' diverse geological features led by Harald 
Hiesinger of the Westf?lische Wilhelms-Universit?t, M?nster, Germany. 
The diversity of geological features on Ceres is further explored in a 
study led by Debra Buczkowski of the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory, 
Laurel, Maryland.

Impact craters are clearly the most abundant geological feature on Ceres, 
and their different shapes help tell the intricate story of Ceres' past. 
Craters that are roughly polygonal -- that is, shapes bounded by straight 
lines -- hint that Ceres' crust is heavily fractured. In addition, several 
Cerean craters have patterns of visible fractures on their floors.

Some, like tiny Oxo, have terraces, while others, such as the large Urvara 
Crater (106 miles, 170 kilometers wide), have central peaks. There are 
craters with flow-like features, and craters that imprint on other craters, 
as well as chains of small craters. Bright areas are peppered across Ceres, 
with the most reflective ones in Occator Crater. Some crater shapes could 
indicate water-ice in the subsurface.

The dwarf planet's various crater forms are consistent with an outer shell 
for Ceres that is not purely ice or rock, but rather a mixture of both 
-- a conclusion reflected in other analyses. Scientists also calculated 
the ratio of various craters' depths to diameters, and found that some 
amount of crater relaxation must have occurred. Additionally, there are 
more craters in the northern hemisphere of Ceres than the south, where 
the large Urvara and Yalode craters are the dominant features.

"The uneven distribution of craters indicates that the crust is not uniform, 
and that Ceres has gone through a complex geological evolution," Hiesinger 
said.

Distribution of Surface Materials

What are the rocky materials in Ceres' crust? A study led by Eleonora 
Ammannito of the University of California, Los Angeles, finds that clay-forming 
minerals called phyllosilicates are all over Ceres. These phyllosilicates 
are rich in magnesium and also have some ammonium embedded in their crystalline 
structure. Their distribution throughout the dwarf planet's crust indicates 
Ceres' surface material has been altered by a global process involving 
water.

Although Ceres' phyllosilicates are uniform in their composition, there 
are marked differences in how abundant these materials are on the surface. 
For example, phyllosilicates are especially prevalent in the region around 
the smooth, "pancake"-like crater Kerwan (174 miles, 280 kilometers in 
diameter), and less so at Yalode Crater (162 miles, 260 kilometers in 
diameter), which has areas of both smooth and rugged terrain around it. 
Since Kerwan and Yalode are similar in size, this may mean that the composition 
of the material into which they impacted may be different. Craters Dantu 
and Haulani both formed recently in geologic time, but also seem to differ 
in composition.

"In comparing craters such as Dantu and Haulani, we find that their different 
material mixtures could extend beneath the surface for miles, or even 
tens of miles in the case of the larger Dantu," Ammannito said.

Looking Higher

Now in its extended mission, the Dawn spacecraft has delivered a wealth 
of images and other data from its current perch at 240 miles (385 kilometers) 
above Ceres' surface, which is closer to the dwarf planet than the International 
Space Station is to Earth. The spacecraft will be increasing its altitude 
at Ceres on Sept. 2, as scientists consider questions that can be examined 
from higher up.

NASA Approves 2018 Launch of Mars InSight Mission
Jet Propulsion Laboratory
September 2, 2016

NASA is moving forward with a spring 2018 launch of its InSight mission 
to study the deep interior of Mars, following final approval this week 
by the agency's Science Mission Directorate.

The Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat 
Transport (InSight) mission was originally scheduled to launch in March 
of this year, but NASA suspended launch preparations in December due to 
a vacuum leak in its prime science instrument, the Seismic Experiment 
for Interior Structure (SEIS).

The new launch period for the mission begins May 5, 2018, with a Mars 
landing scheduled for Nov. 26, 2018. The next launch opportunity is driven 
by orbital dynamics, so 2018 is the soonest the lander can be on its way.

"Our robotic scientific explorers such as InSight are paving the way toward 
an ambitious journey to send humans to the Red Planet," said Geoff Yoder, 
acting associate administrator for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, 
in Washington. "It's gratifying that we are moving forward with this important 
mission to help us better understand the origins of Mars and all the rocky 
planets, including Earth."

The SEIS instrument -- designed to measure ground movements as small as 
half the radius of a hydrogen atom -- requires a perfect vacuum seal around 
its three main sensors in order to withstand harsh conditions on the Red 
Planet. Under what's known as the mission "replan," NASA's Jet Propulsion 
Laboratory in Pasadena, California, will be responsible for redesigning, 
developing and qualifying the instrument's evacuated container and the 
electrical feedthroughs that failed previously. France's space agency, 
the Centre National d'?tudes Spatiales (CNES), will focus on developing 
and delivering the key sensors for SEIS, integration of the sensors into 
the container, and the final integration of the instrument onto the spacecraft.

The German Aerospace Center (DLR) is contributing the Heat Flow and Physical 
Properties Package (HP3) to InSight's science payload.

NASA's budget for InSight was $675 million. The instrument redesign and 
two-year delay add $153.8 million. The additional cost will not delay 
or cancel any current missions, though there may be fewer opportunities 
for new missions in future years, from fiscal years 2017-2020.

InSight's primary goal is to help us understand how rocky planets formed 
and evolved. Jim Green, director of NASA's Planetary Science Division, 
said, "We've concluded that a replanned InSight mission for launch in 
2018 is the best approach to fulfill these long-sought, high-priority 
science objectives."

CNES President Jean-Yves Le Gall added, "This confirmation of the launch 
plan for InSight is excellent news and an unparalleled opportunity to 
learn more about the internal structure of the Red Planet, which is currently 
of major interest to the international science community."

The InSight Project is managed by JPL for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, 
Washington. Lockheed Martin Space Systems, Denver, built the spacecraft. 
InSight is part of NASA's Discovery Program, which is managed by NASA's 
Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.
