Feb 19, 2021 12:05 AM Russ Byth A big jump in new covid-19 cases yesterday as the province reported 617 for the previous 24 hours. Once again Fraser Health accounted for more than half the new cases. The number continued to drop in the Interior Health area though with just 17 new cases. There will be a live update this afternoon at 3. The Ministry of Health is investing in Interior research universities to understand the harmful effects of COVID-19 and mitigate its impact on communities across the province. UBCO is part of the group that will take on projects from identifying...

NASA's Perseverance Rover Lands Successfully in Deep Crater Near Mars' Equator By 10 facts about Red Planet, MARS National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has successfully landed its Perseverance rover in a deep crater near the planet Mars' equator called Jezero. Engineers at NASA's mission control in California erupted with joy when confirmation of touchdown came through, the BBC reported on Thursday.

Mars has fascinated us for millennia. Almost from the time astronomers first turned their telescopes on the planet shining in the night sky, we've imagined life there. Unlike our other planetary neighbor, Venus, which remains shrouded in cloudy mystery, the red planet has invited speculation and exploration. Since the 1960s, the U.S. and the Soviet Union and, later, Russia and Japan, have launched spacecraft destined to land on or orbit Mars. The successful missions, like the very first Mars flyby in 1964 by the U.S. Mariner 4, have provided a treasure trove of data and, of course, introduced...

Where Should Future Astronauts Land on Mars? Follow the Water NASA Astronauts on Mars (Illustration): In this illustration, NASA astronauts drill into the Mars’ subsurface. The agency is creating new maps that show where ice is most likely to be easily accessible to future astronauts. Credit: NASA. Full image and caption › A new NASA paper provides the most detailed map to date of near-surface water ice on the Red Planet. So you want to build a Mars base. Where to start? Like any human settlement, it would be best located near accessible water. Not only will water be crucial for life-supp...
