Abstract

The Mars Exploration Rover Spirit and its Athena science payload have been used to investigate a landing site in Gusev crater. Gusev is hypothesized to be the site of a former lake, but no clear evidence for lacustrine sedimentation has been found to date. Instead, the dominant lithology is basalt, and the dominant geologic processes are impact events and eolian transport. Many rocks exhibit coatings and other characteristics that may be evidence for minor aqueous alteration. Any lacustrine sediments that may exist at this location within Gusev apparently have been buried by lavas that have undergone subsequent impact disruption.

2. A martian solar day has a mean period of 24 hours 39 minutes 35.244 seconds and is referred to as a sol to distinguish this from a roughly 3% shorter solar day on Earth. A martian sidereal day as measured with respect to the fixed stars is 24h 37m 22.663s as compared with 23h 56m 04.0905s for Earth. See www.giss.nasa.gov/tools/mars24 for more information.
