Unexpected [Ice] Gold


Our Phoenix droid may have kicked up some ice chunks during landing. If correct, early ice samples will be analyzed before the projected month-long digging gets to the embedded permafrost ice. I'm all prematurely hard!

I love this mission. I defy anyone to watch the video of JPL during Phoenix's landing and not get all teared up. No monument of mankind could ever be as awesome as our dead droids on Mars.

It's frontier science for rationalists!
