Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Deposits of salt like the white streaks at the bottom of this photo build up throughout the Wright Valley, located in the McMurdo Dry Valleys. Scientists are studying Don Juan Pond, the valley around it, and its outflow to understand the unusual chemistry in the lake, and its implications for the hunt for life on other planets, specifically on Mars. Read more about this research in The Antarctic Sun. |
