File Description [top]

Albuquerque Newspapers is composed of the Albuquerque Journal and The Albuquerque Tribune. The Albuquerque Journal is the largest paper in the state. Four daily editions cover New Mexico news and comment on relevant national issues. Both papers cover all state legislative issues, and the Albuquerque Journal maintains a bureau in Santa Fe, the state capital. Use the Albuquerque Journal sections to monitor local business (SH=BUSINESS OUTLOOK). The Journal contains a computer and Internet news section on Tuesdays. Also included are regular sections on food, the outdoors and recreation, youth issues, travel and entertainment, and local real estate commentary. The paper employs full- time correspondents in both Washington, DC, and Las Cruces, NM, from which originate reports on cross- border issues with Mexico. Both papers pay close attention to national scientific laboratories in New Mexico, including the Los Alamos National Laboratory (nuclear weapons, earth and environmental systems, and biotechnology), Sandia National Labs (national security lab, including weapons and laser research), Santa Fe Institute (scientific research), USAF Phillips Lab (warfare technology and space), and VLA (astronomical radio observatory), among others.

    TEXT: 
  /LP, /TX  * The claims and counterclaims concerning the evidence of life on Mars give 
    a glimpse into the inner process of science 
     
    Science at the cutting edge is a battleground of unsettled ideas, says 
    University of New Mexico geologist Chip Shearer. 
     
  /TX   That is where Shearer and his colleagues at UNM's Institute of Meteoritics 
    find themselves as they begin a study of five Martian meteorites, trying to 
    determine whether that planet might once have harbored life. 
     
     The work has placed them in the scientific fishbowl that has surrounded 
    their normally obscure field since NASA scientists in August claimed they 
    had found evidence of ancient life in a rock from Mars. 
                               (...) 
     * Two weeks ago, a British team reported finding additional evidence for 
    life on Mars in the same meteorite studied by the NASA scientists. 
     
     * A continent away, a U.S. geochemist reported the same week that the 
    chemicals found by the NASA scientists were just contamination picked up 
    here on Earth. 
     
     What looks to outsiders like chaos is really the way science does its 
    business, said Harry McSween, an expert in Martian meteorites at the 
    University of Tennessee. 
     
     "Science moves ahead in fits and starts. It's confusing for a while as 
    scientists run off in different directions," he said. 
     
     Those fits and starts are combined with a kind of "prove-it-to-me" 
    skepticism with which scientists approach the most important claims. 
     
     Skepticism -- and there is plenty of it among scientists about the NASA 
    claim -- is a fundamental part of scientists' nature, according to McSween. 
     
     The question being studied by Shearer's UNM group is a crucial one, 
    McSween said -- what was the temperature when the Martian rock's carbon 
    molecules were deposited? 
     
     Those carbon molecules were a key piece of the NASA scientists' evidence, 
    and they concluded the temperature was below the boiling point of water -- 
    compatible with life. 
     
     McSween disagreed. In research published recently in the British 
    scientific journal Nature, he concluded the temperature was far hotter than 
    water's boiling point -- too hot for life. 
     
     Life on Mars? 
     
     University of New Mexico scientist Chip Shearer will talk about the search 
    for life on Mars this evening at the monthly meeting of New Mexicans for 
    Science and Reason. The 7 p.m. meeting, free and open to the public, will 
    be in room 2406 of the UNM Law Building, 1117 Stanford NE.
