...cargo of these outbound ships tends to be on the less-than-glamorous side. The Savannah port's top export by volume is wood pulp. Other biggies include paper and paperboard, "drilling mud," kaolin clay, fabric and frozen chicken parts--in particular, chicken feet, beloved by Chinese gourmets. "We're sending raw materials to foreign countries, and in return, generally speaking, we're receiving finished goods," says John Trent, director of operations for the Georgia Ports Authority, which runs the Savannah port and a smaller operation in Brunswick that specializes in cars and bulk materials. What goes out weighs more...
...days, following system checks and the capture of hundreds of images from stereoscopic cameras, the stationary probe will begin its search for frozen water. Scientists say Mars was once flush with rivers and lakes, but most of the water escaped into space due to the planet's low gravity and thin atmosphere. What's left is believed to be concentrated at the poles. Phoenix will soon begin digging for it, extending an 8 ft. (2.35 m) robotic arm outfitted with a movable scoop. First, however, scientists will use landing-site images to build a virtual 3-D computer...
...about three months to study the Martian north pole before -200 F winter temperatures hit the region and threaten to freeze the instruments. But Phoenix is designed with a longer, six-to-eight-month stay in mind, so hopes are high that the probe will not only find frozen water but will also serve as a precursor to later missions seeking evidence of microscopic organic life. Which means that NASA, like Frosty, will probably be back again someday...
...most of that water to vanish into space. What was left retreated into the subsoil or, significantly, contracted into the poles. Phoenix, a stationary lander in the style of the old Viking ships that touched down on the planet in 1976, will get a chance to dig into that frozen polar rind...
