OK, it's cold outside in Earth's northern hemisphere and here's something
topical. http://www.webolutionary.com/3d/imag...med_mars-1.jpg What do you think the soaring possibilities would be on a terraformed Mars with an atmosphere as dense as Earth's? For one thing, your compass wouldn't work - there's no magnetic field. The Sun's heating would be much less but the gravity is only one third that of Earth. Maybe a hang glider that folds into a backpack? Speculation, Mr. Spock? Bill Daniels |
