Technology Tuesday: Night Clouds Warm Red Planet
                February 6, 2007                      

Nighttime clouds detected for the first time on Mars help to keep the planet’s surface warm after sunset when temperatures drop, a new study suggests.

The nocturnal clouds are five times thicker than their daytime counterparts and hover close to the ground, almost like a fog.

Technology Tuesday is the effort to highlight and point us to the glory of God by pondering His great works. As the Psalmist explains, "The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork" (Psalm 19:1). "Let all the earth fear the Lord; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him!" (Psalm 33:8). Oh, how great is our God!!
