@Diabsiniman Well I did fix the car. 😉

[Cody @CodysLab]

@Diabsiniman It was pretty crunched. In theory I could weld it but I ended up just buying a new pan.

@_Anonym0us_FL_ Iron dissolved in a solution eg with an acid or glass is not magnetic. If you added the ferris sulfate to the rock and then oxidized it to iron oxide then it would indeed make the rock magnetic.

@Stogy11 actually, I think I've thought of the same thing and yeah, I'm pretty sure it will work. the main issue being that the material will need to be dry and not frozen. Unfortunately, it is neither this time of year.

@starman0708499 They can and almost certainly have but there is a huge difference between a few freeze-dried cells clinging to the side of a rover and the active biosphere that a human would bring with them.

@pronounced_kyle Too late. I already own it all. A piece of paper, that I am neglecting to produce, says so.

@MAstronomers You hardly ever see something like this on earth because some cow stepping on it would crush the delicate rock formation.

@WyattListon @MatthewCappucci It will be like during a total eclipse when 99% of the sun is covered. That last little bit is still bright enough to burn eyes.

[Cody @CodysLab]

@WyattListon @MatthewCappucci The sun is powerful enough to burn eyes but not kill (immediately) with radiation. 🤷

@___frye Similar initial and growing conditions but its not perfect so most snowflakes arnt symmetrical including some of the ones shown here.

@astro_jaz I swear one day I'm going to build a dirigible just to get above the clouds.
