Space Weather News for July 27, 2007

DUST STORM UPDATE: A severe dust storm on Mars, which has been
darkening skies and causing a solar energy crisis for NASA's Mars rovers,
refuses to die down. Clouds of dust are now visible in backyard telescopes
and Mars is beginning to resemble a orange billiard ball as all of its
underlying surface markings are hidden from view. The storm is already
a month old and no one knows when it will subside. Visit
spaceweather.com for photos and status reports.

Very cool. Don't worry about the superrovers though. It was a storm that knocked the dust off their solar panels a while back, and once again, extended their lives.

I guess I'll have to cover my car and seal in my windows until it blows over. Thanks- Marvin of Mars.
