I challenge you not to look at this and make a ping/spring/boing happy sort of a noise.

I read that as, "Well, the stuff is in the oven anyway. If we do manage to deliver ice how are we going to interpret the data with a mixed sample? Might as well cook this one up and be done with it."
With regards to Shaka's question, can they determine the H/D ratio from the evolved stuff? (If they can, the H/D ratio of the ice would be lost since both would probably sublime equally well within experimental error. So they'd need a fresh ice sample in the oven, not a used and abused concentrate.) -------------------- Some higher resolution images available at my photostream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/31678681@N07/

Okay, I'm a bit confused.
Peter's comments implied fresh delivery of a dry sample, no? Like oven #0 has spoiled stuff in it. Would they just dump new dry stuff in #0 till it's finally full and then, how do you characterize the result in regard to its context? As NotLurkingAnymore suggests, could #0 just be a delivery test site now? I admit to profound ignorance of the chemistry of all this. Paul |
