I wasn't saying that it IS shaded. I was asking if there was, hypothetically, a small area in that crater that was permanently shaded what might we find? We know there is ice at the poles of Mars. Could there be any here IF there are small permanently shaded areas?

    - No, because there IS no permanent shade here. (n/t) - Nick Hoffman - 2/14/2004 4:33:59 PM
      - Not even a very small hypothetical cave area (e.g., 2 or 3 square ft) perhaps along the rim? How can you say definitely there isn't? (n/t) - Buck Galaxy - 2/14/2004 5:32:44 PM
