Hi E.P. But they do! Remember that the rovers found indeed shergottites on Mars. Just scratch the weathering goo away and let the Moessbauer-proboscis smell on the rock - et voilá! http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/releases/2004/104.cfm

Hi all - Looking at Fectay's really nice martian: http://www.geocities.com/arizonaviking2000/Tucsonshowandparty2008c081.jpg one is left wondering, "Why doesn't Mars look like Mars?" Nothing remotely similar shows up in the images the rovers send down. The answer in short would appear to be that all that the rovers are imaging is the surface layer, which is simply loaded with impact products, all covered with iron compounds from iron impactors. So Mars may be the red planet - but only on its surface. E.P.
