Here's the thing about mars: it is different from earth

Expect to see things you don't see here (and vice versa). Look for earth-analogs, but don't expect them to match exactly. Let's get the MI on that stuff and do a few spectrographs.

PS: I don't believe that you have done your 25 lb. talcum powder experiment. I can't imagine why you would claim to know its outcome.

        So does oily dirt. So does talcum powder. Not ready to make any conclusions. (n/t) - alcaray - 1/15/2004 6:13:06 PM
        
        So does a powder. Roll a toy car in icing sugar. (n/t) - Tony - 1/15/2004 6:10:18 PM
