Actually, it is a small fringe that tends
to protest whenever NASA lanches a nuclear powered probe. I think they just
enjoy carrying signs and shouting their
microwaves and
nuclear radiation!

Just a quick question? We're (you're) not forgetting about the
tidal forces are you? This came to mind while reading the last post
about using fiber optics, and lasting a week. I may be off base, but
it's just a thought. And, I'm also assuming that most of you (or all),
do believe there

Jack,
Good point. My CRC handbook has anhydrous (?) magnesium

Not only that but my question is if their is life, and its anything like
life on earth, heating the ice will signifcantly raise
Hi Jack,
If the cryobot sinks through the salt, how can it communicate with the outside world?
The salt is a conductor, so it will absorb radiowaves. Will it communicate by sound
(sonar), or by a simple cable to a station on the surface?
I find it difficult to compare the cryobot with vehicle
gt;as well, as Epsom salts' melt point is about 200-250 C I think.

Bruce, John, et al.,
My point is IF the Cryobot is deployed on or subsequently encounters a layer or mass of salt (likely, with a probability of >0.3--my guess) that is large relative to the bot's size (aspect ratio is large), then hot water jets will not do the job--insufficient ice to make water
scientific.
