<font color="yellow">A NEW MODEL OF MARS AS A FORMER CAPTURED SATELLITE:</font><br /><br />Okay, this turns me off.

This web site is poorly designed and Richard C. Hoagland should seriously consider contracting or hiring professionals in the field; however, I will overlook his unprofessionally poor marketing abilities for the time being.<font color="yellow"><br /><br />Conventional models of Mars, based on measurements by initial Mariner unmanned spacecraft, found an arid, apparently ancient environment without current liquid water.<br /><br /></font>kay, so far.<font color="yellow"><br /><br />This prompted subsequent, highly negative assessments regarding Mars’ history, and the difficulty for the origin and/or evolution of higher forms of life.<br /><br /></font>ause + effect = Problem or Richard C.
