Opportunity had spent its entire time on Mars, since landing in late January, inside a shallow crater studying soil and the exposed shelf of bedrock. The most recent and telling observations came by taking 152 microscopic pictures of a rock named Last Chance. The findings add to previous rover discoveries of hematite, a mineral typically formed in water, and the layered rocks being laden with salts, which led scientists to conclude the region was at least soaked with groundwater.
Well, I never doubted the existence of Martians, as a matter of fact they are living amongst us.
