There aren't a lot of machines that operate 20 times longer than they were supposed to. There aren't a lot of scientists doing 20 times more research than they intended to. There aren't a lot of explorers covering 20 times more ground than they were supposed to be able...
...seas, just as it is in Earth's. Opportunity discovered deposits of BB-sized pellets - which NASA nicknamed blueberries - that are rich in hematite, a mineral that forms only in watery environments. And by pure serendipity, in 2007 a balky wheel on Spirit dug a shallow trench in the ground, revealing the presence of white silica, another indicator of water.

That course of action meant accepting the inevitability of Israeli casualties. Indeed, the Israelis are aware that Hamas has been hoping for a ground operation, in the belief that it offers the militants a chance to fight on a more level playing field than when Israel attacks from the skies...
