: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 ?
:15:01
I don't know.It sounds like
interference from the rover.
:15:06
- Can you fix it ?
- Hey, skip, I can fix anything.
:15:10
- Love that modesty.
:15:18
Break out theradar.
Let's see what this thing's made of.
:15:22
Oh, there's onemore thing.
:15:25
This is a very important, very special
day for a good friend of ours back home.
:15:30
We knowhe's there right now.
He hates it when anybody
makes any kind of a fuss about him,
:15:34
so I'm not gonna
mention his name.
:15:36
Because the last thing
I would want to do would be...
:15:38
to embarrass someone
like Jim McConnell !
:15:41
Was that loud?
Oh, well. It's done now.
:15:44
It can't be right.
It says there's metal under there.
:15:47
- Solid metal.
- No, that doesn't make any sense.
:15:49
- You're reading a vein ofore, Renee.
- No, it--
:15:52
It says it's under
the whole mountain.
:15:56
All right. Move it closer, up the
power, and we're gonna try it again.
:15:59
- Hey.
- ** Happy birthday to you **
