The community !mars@discuss.tchncs.de is hosting every kind of news, art and discussions about the planet mars. Everybody is welcome to participate, even if you don’t know much about Mars. Feel free to ask questions, learn and have fun. Artworks are accepted if they’re at least somewhat related to Mars. I post there regularly, to provide information and infographics, such as this one and this one, but i haven’t had time yet to put these infographics into actual posts to explain what is shown on them. Forgive me for not having done so already.
Don’t forget to add the community to lemmy-federate.com

Subscribed. Thanks !
I’m not going to, but my immediate instinct is to make a new post titled “Mars” and the body would say “It’s red”
you can of course do so, and maybe also explain why it’s red (it’s because of iron oxide). and then you can discuss the composition of the martian landscape, i.e. what types of minerals you can find there. it’s called areology and a very interesting field of study!
And then someone can reply that it’s not really as red as we’ve been made to believe. And that sometimes, in just the right light, standing on Mars, the sky would look blue, too.
Does Mars have enchiladas?
that depends … do you?
Hmmmm… that’s a solid sometimes.
then so does mars if you go there ;-)
What’s going on with the big ol’ red, still a dead pile of rocks? Did they find water and life? Did it turn out to be a hoax and that Mars isn’t even real?
Sell it to me, spaceman!
How deep would you like to go?
- There was a rare large cloud in the atmosphere just a few weeks ago.
- They found minerals that can only be made by a sea of water just the other day.
- There are structures on Mars that resemble river deltas.
- The largest mountains on Mars like to have frosted tips in the winter
- A few years ago during the summer, a dark suspicious liquid was leaking from the dunes near the equator
- There are suspicions that Earthen life originated from a Martian meteorite.
- Twice per epoch, when the Earth, Mars, Phobos and Deimos align, Cthulhu wakes from his slumber deep within the bowels of Valles Marineris, and with him, the undead arise to lay waste to the land. This is why in the Ancient Roman texts, Mars is the God of War and Destruction.
OK, subscribed.
I’m not gonna sell it to you, since i’m not a businessman.
the idea of going to mars is that while doing so, we’re necessarily gonna discover a lot of new technology, and that helps people on earth. on top of that, living on mars offers an adventure to people who don’t want to live a boring life. That’s all i can say today.
I’m not gonna sell it to you, since i’m not a businessman.
Don’t sell yourself short, I am a conman and I can sell anything.
Want to buy a bridge? I’m a historical bridge realtor.
That’s all i can say today.
Maybe tomorrow you can reveal your secrets.
