GA? edit

Nice article - have you considered a good article nomination for it? I think it would pass if it had more secondary sources - it relies too heavily on primary sources. RockMagnetist (talk) 16:00, 25 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Article is missing perchlorates edit

From the Phoenix lander article:

"Mars soil contains perchlorate (ClO
4
) and thus may not be as life-friendly as thought earlier.[1][2] The presence of almost 0.5% perchlorates in the soil was an unexpected finding with broad implications.[3] " -Cheers, BatteryIncluded (talk) 00:19, 12 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
