‘CANALS ON MARS’
(N Z.P.A.-Reuter—Copyright)
BERKELEY (California), December 30.
Canals and oases exist on Mars, according to pictures taken by the Mariner IV spacecraft, an astronomer. Dr. Clyde W. Tombaugh, said today. He told a science meeting: “I know there are others who say they cannot see canals on Mars but I would like to see them have their eyes tested.” Dr. Tombaugh said the unexplained dark streaks in the Mariner pictures coincided with markings he had seen in telescopic studies of the planet.
