Alien Anomalies

Thank you very much for the Katabatic winds and its implications etc.. As far as I am be able to follow the paper, it deals with a sub-subdetail. Maybe important in context  and interesting, but just a tiny detail of the picture. 

I often wonder, why these advanced mineral mappers and their neighbourinstruments  never record something like ore deposits. I mean deposits= concentrations, not only traces. No lead on mercury, no beryllium on venus, no cobalt on the moon, no molybdenium on mars.?
We have a nice mixture of deposits , a wide spread variety of ore bodies  on earth and nothing comparable to that  in the solar system ?
 Not really plausible.
Regarding the further economic exploration of the solar systems, these datas would be of  strategic value and would definitely be hold back. If this is true, a huge amount of datas and relations between datas gets   blacked out. And this is ( only )one detail, but I would regard it to be significant. These datas are missing ( underevaluated ? ) and a lot of people should be aware of  this "missing".

Another significant point:  I am convinced, no foreign space ageny would risk to publish better images than frontman NASA / JPL  History shows, that defending superiority with unethical strategies, like fraud, oppression, blackmailing, propaganda , war always leads into the orcus. They disappear, but it takes some time and costs a lot of blood and afterwards others arise, doing something simlar. The rule of the low-grades is a typical sign of still planetary bound societies. Hopefully this is an universal law. We have so much homegrown plagues onboard, we do not need some exotic plagues coming from the stars.
No trillion bits of information, but education, the real one, is our onliest chance to escape. Each human  got a tool, worth some billions.  In his head.

I think I read somewhere recently that Planetry org has a couple of years worth of weather data but there were some errors in the instruments at some point during that time and they had to stop taking readings for a while. Even so there are millions of discrete readings in that data. They publish graphs etc too. Try googling about it and see what you find.

The data is only as good as the people who interpret it, and you have to know what information you want out to be able to piece it all together. It is likely that you would have to pull pieces from different areas together to make up the total picture since scientists of different disciplines want or are mainly interested in data showing their areas of study.

you will see that many craters have this white shiny soil beneath the surface

Not white and shiny to the eye, but reflecting (and emitting) more in the infrared. THEMIS works in emission bands in the infrared from about 6-15 microns, so the white areas are emitting more heat. Typically this will indicate the presence of a particular mineral deposit. This map is made from all the infrared bands, but is not in visible light.
