4. Gabriel Tobie:

   The infrared shows us that the surface of the south pole is young, which is not a surprise because we knew about the jets that blast icy material there, now, thanks to these infrared eyes, you can go back in time and say that one large region in the northern hemisphere appears also young and was probably active not that long ago, in geologic timelines.
