Nasa reports:
PASADENA, Calif. — NASA’s Phoenix Mars Lander has detected snow falling from Martian clouds… A laser instrument designed to gather knowledge of how the atmosphere and surface interact on Mars has detected snow from clouds about 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) above the spacecraft’s landing site. Data show the snow vaporizing before reaching the ground.
Ski season must be getting close!
