Plantagenet, for his part, relinquishes his dream of becoming Chancellor of the Exchequer so that he can take her to the Continent.

These tests will allow Martian soil samples to incubate longer in order to give any microbes present a better chance to grow. The experiments will be run at temperatures closer to the frigid levels that prevail on Mars. Also, in a search for life that may have burrowed deeper into the Martian soil to escape ultraviolet radiation bombarding the surface, one of the landers will try to dig 30.5 centimeters (1 foot) deep for a soil sample. Explains Klein: "We want to play out our whole set of cards before we make our best judgment on the question of life...
