i love the fact they won't make a definitive call until they dig in and test the stuff. it could be a salt deposit.

the slow steady "have proof before you make the definitive call" is typical. and why science is better than fairy tales.
Not in big frozen lakes that close to the surface.
Little crystals strewn in the dust was expected.

I still retain the right to get
excited.

Science is better than fairy tales.
But Star Wars and all the space movies
make this and other ventures
perfectly mundane to most.

I think many people expect some sort of
giant insect to crawl from under a rock
and eat the lander on camera. If not, then who cares.

Oops. Could be called a nerd for this post.
