And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Meteorite, on Mars, as seen by the rover sent there by the Earthlings.
15 years ago on this month, NASA’s Opportunity Rover came across this meteorite specimen on the plains of Mars. The pitted, basketball-size object is mostly made of iron & nickel.
It would be interesting to know the meteorite's story from birth to landing.
