A COVER. The base image is a MOLA Digital Elevation Model showing a portion of Mars. Inset A is a CTX image which shows the morphology of fossa. Authors determined the absolute model age (inset B) of a set of fossae known as Pyrrhae Fossae in the Noachis Terra, Mars using the recently established Buffered Crater Counting (BCC) technique (inset C). The determination of the age helped to explain how the Pyrrhae Fossae developed in the early Martian time (late Noachian) (inset D) in response to the Martian crustal extension. See page 906.

Third Concept aims at providing a platform where a meaningful exchange of ideas can take place among the people of the Third World. The attempt will be to communicate, debate and disseminate information, ideas and alternatives for the resolution of the common problems facing humankind. We welcome contributions from academics, joumahsts and even from those who may never have published anything before. The only requirement is a concern for and desire to understand and take the issue of our time. Contributions may be descriptive, analytical or theoretical. They may be in the form of original articles, reactions to previous contributions, or even a comment on a prevailing situation. All contributions, neatly typed in double space, may be addressed to:
