From the surface of Mars--where the sky is salmon and Earth is a blue morning star--you probably would have noticed the spaceship coming. It may have been the noise the thing made that caught your attention; although the Martian atmosphere is spent and shredded, it's not too tenuous to carry sound.

He is too savvy to declare himself cured--that determination could take three years--but he is ready for battle, both to save his company and to get the new device into doctors' hands. CellPro lost the latest round in its patent fight with competitors in federal court in April, and in a month a judge could issue a ruling preventing CellPro from selling its product to new customers...
