Just saw this article in the Telegraph:
QUOTE Martian dirt is rich in nutrients and capable of sustaining Earthly life, such as turnips and asparagus, surprised scientists announced. But as I understood the press telecon, they've found certain trace elements, not all the nutrients necessary for growing plants (i.e., NPK). Seems like the press is being "led down the garden path" by these press conferences. -------------------- |
