Evidence of water found on Mars

Evidence of water found on Mars



 Today’s news stirred us like a long, cool drink in the blistering heat. Science has gestured at the presence of water on Mars before, but evidence of liquid water--briny, creeping flows that appear in a crater during Martian summers--has tremendous implications in the search for life beyond our planet. We felt compelled to honor such an exciting discovery with a Doodle, and staring at satellite images of Mars for inspiration made Doodler Nate Swinehart really, really thirsty.

Google doodle celebrates André-Jacques Garnerin and the 216th anniversary of the first parachute jump

Google has created a ‘doodle’ to celebrate the 216th anniversary of the world’s first parachute jump. The doodle is based on Andre-Jacque Garnerin’s daring leap on October 22 1797 at Parc Monceau in Paris, which saw the then 28-year-old leap from a balloon using a seven-metre silk parachute that resembled an umbrella. Once Garnerin’s balloon reached a height of approximately 3,000 feet, the Parisian daredevil severed the rope that attached it to his basket, automatically opening the parachute. This left Garnerin plummeting towards the earth still inside the container, with just the attached silk parachute in place to decrease the speed of its fall. Although the basket lurched violently during the descent and suffered a violent landing, Garnerin somehow emerged totally uninjured. Following the jump, Garnerin was granted the title Official Aeronaut of France and he went on to become a well-known international figure. He and his wife Jeanne Genevieve Labross...

Bram Stoker books the subject of latest Google doodle

Bram Stoker's 165th birthday is being marked by a Google doodle. Bram Stoker, born Abraham Stoker, was an Irish novelist and short story writer, best known today for his 1897 novel Dracula. Stoker wrote his first novel, The Primrose Path, in 1875. It appeared in five issues of The Shamrock (Dublin) with the first instalment appearing on February 6, 1875 and the last on March 6, 1875.

Bram Stoker wrote two more books (The Watter's Mou' and The Shoulder of Shasta) before writing the book he's best remembered for even today. Before writing Dracula, Stoker spent considerable time researching European fol...
