Is this the weird high chromium rock???? <br /><br /><font color="orange">Assemblee has turned out to have "a crazy composition," Squyres noted.

A gold rush ha, be a little problem getting<br /> that back to earth, good for the locals though... A high concentration of U-238 would be a big find and <br />something that would support nuclear rockets on Mars and extend our reach into the solar system, if explorers<br /> can process it there in an ample supply.<br /><br />What would chromium do to the local Martian economy???<br /><br />1P177277935EL5M1 <br /></font></font> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> Ron Bennett </div>

Unsuccessful rebellions, indeed, generally establish the encroachments on the rights of the people which have produced them.
