2013 @11:20PM (#42471189)      Firstly, we probe for much much
more than just water.     Secondly, we don't get more
information from looking at a rock in Africa. We get some
information, and it's different from the information we get from
Mars itself.     Thirdly, this is from very early Mars history.
It's very different to current Mars.    • Re:Ironic (Score:5,

@11:37PM (#42471305)      Without the money spent on probes
(and, in particular, without the Apollo Lunar samples and the
Viking Mars descent mass spectrometer), we wouldn't know that
this was a Martian rock.    • Re:So (Score:4, Informative)
