The Earth Rover has returned this remarkable and historic photograph of a rock it encountered which scientists have named Maxfli 1. Reports Jonathan Gould, Mission Position Manager, "We're working on understanding it. A special team has been assembled and will be working throughout the night. " At this time, the hypothesis getting the most traction is that it is a form of lava which was frozen in the atmosphere and then fell to earth. NADA scientists are most intrigued by the "dimples". "I personally like this rock" said Gould, "It's my favorite rock so far."
