I didn't know that there was actually WIND on Mars...

Oh' yes, big ones, Mars has sand storms that last months.

It seems incredible, when you stop and think about it. We are looking at the surface of another world.
I wish H. G. could have seen it. :-k

You're right there Lonesome...When Mariner 9 first went into orbit in the 70's It couldn't see any of the surface at all for weeks because of a huge dust storm that covered the entire planet....

By the way , when you download the dust storm...it's not just a still photograph ...it's a movie with lots of dust devils all over the place...It's quite spectacular.

If you google in JPL All of the NASA sites will come up.

I especially like the Cassini site, which I have a look at every morning.

Take a look.
