re: Got A Picture Of Some Melted Spacecraft Debris?
It definitely looks like a meteorite to me. Keep in mind that our expectations of how easy they are to find, is based on what we see here on Earth, where meteorites are quickly swallowed up by active biological, hydrological, and geological processies. Thus, they're rare. But who knows how things work at Meridiani? That thing could have been laying there, out in the open, for 50 million years or more. Plenty of time for a lot of meteorites to collect. I imagine we'll get a good sense for how common they are, as Opportunity heads south towards Victoria crater.
Cheers,
