...into the surface, a depth where scientists believe ice meets soil, and haul a sample onto the spacecraft. There, an instrument will heat the soil in tiny ovens, checking the resulting vapors for water and carbon compounds. An on-board chemistry lab with dual microscopes will add water to the sample and analyze the spectral and electrochemical results to check acidity, salt levels, and ion concentrations...
...there can be a strong temptation towards what might be called green-collar inflation, because the idea that environmentalism can actually add jobs is key to the new arguments for global warming action. On the surface, cap and trade and other anti-climate change policies look like short-term economic losers that will raise the cost of energy and lead to job loss.

This allowed them to add balance tests inspired by Seitai--a Japanese healing therapy that focuses on posture--and let the board double as a snowboard for use in the slalom, one of Wii Fit's coolest minigames...
