KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - Seen on the horizon just past the NASA News Centers countdown clock, NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) launches at 7 43 a.m. EDT atop a Lockheed Martin Atlas V rocket from Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. All systems performed nominally for NASA's first Atlas V launch. The spacecraft will arrive at Mars in March 2006. Once in orbit around Mars, various instruments on the MRO will convey detailed observations of the Martian surface, subsurface and atmosphere. Researchers will use the data to study the history and distribution of Martian water. Learning more about what has happened to the water will focus searches for possible past or present Martian life. Observations by the orbiter will also support future Mars missions by examining potential landing sites and providing a communications relay between the Martian surface and Earth.

Phrenology is a pseudoscience primarily focused on measurements of the human skull, based on the concept that the brain is the organ of the mind and that certain brain areas have localized, specific functions or modules. The direct link between the morphology of the skull and the human character was discovered by Franz Joseph Gall (1758-1828),

Attendees view a 3D panorama of Mars during a Mars celebration event Friday, May 31, 2019, in Mars, Pennsylvania. NASA is in the small town to celebrate Mars exploration and share the agencys excitement about landing astronauts on the Moon in five years. The celebration includes a weekend of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) activities.

P-29514 BW Miranda reveals a complex geologic history in this view acquired by Voyager 2 around its closest approach to the Uranian moon. At least three terrain types of different age and geologic style are evident at this resolution of about 700 meters (2,300 feet). Visible in this clear-filter, narrow-angle image are from left 1) an apparently ancient, cratered terrain consisting of rolling, subdued hills and degraded medium-sized craters; 2) a grooved terrain with linear valleys and ridges developed at the expense of, or replacing, the first terrain type; and 3) a complex terrain seen along the terminator, in which intersecting curvillinear ridges and troughs are abrubtly truncated by the linear, grooved terrain. Voyager scientists believe this third terrain type is intermediate in age between the first two.
