:13:00
Look at the color and how shiny it is.
That almost looks like--
:13:04
- It looks like ice.
:13:06
- This far south ?
- Impossible. You can't
have ice at this latitude.
:13:10
I mean, not unless
there's, like, a--
:13:15
Okay, how far away
is that ?
:13:17
Sixteen kilometers, northeast.
Take us 20 minutes to get there, chief.
:13:21
We're gonna send a packet to Micker.
We're going out there.
:13:23
- Keep working.
- Okay.
:13:37
- Careful. Watch your step.
:13:40
- Is it possible to take picture ?
- Oh, picture.
:13:42
- Here we go.
- Let's have a picture.
:13:45
Say, "Cheese."
:13:49
This is a trulyanomalous formation.
:13:51
It's unlike anything
ever seen so far.
:13:54
The structure appears
to be crystalline,
:13:56
at least from the angle that's
displayed by ARES-8.
:13:59
We're trying not to go too nuts up here,
but we think there's a good chance...
:14:02
that this could bean extrusion
from some subsurface
geothermal column of water.
:14:06
And, of course,
if that's correct,
:14:08
then we may have found the key
to permanent human colonization.
:14:11
- We thinkit wise
to suspend judgement--
- Let geology and hydrology...
:14:15
know we need to scramble
on this-- full court press.
:14:18
So we're gonna head out there ASAP
and take a look at this thing,
:14:20
tr yand get an idea
of its composition.
:14:22
By the time you receive this,
we should just about be on site.
:14:56
Anybody else hearing that ?
:14:59
Yeah. Whatis it ?
