Anyways, this picture above of the increasing dust storms makes me think, what if something like this happened to us, our entire planet covered in something like a hurricane. This is really quite disturbing that this can happen to a planet, that sometimes has quite a stable environment. These dust storms caused a problem that heated up its atmosphere, and drastically cooled the planet's surface. One reason that this was being watched so closely at the time was that NASA's Mars Odyssey was due to arrive only a week after the dust storm looked like the picture on the right at the top. What a harsh environment. It is so weird that a planet so close and quite a lot like ours could end up that way, especially with calm luscious Earth such a short distance away.
