Interesting paragraph:

Rover-team scientists are wondering whether some rocks that Opportunity has 
seen atop the ground
surface are rocky meteorites. "Mars should be hit by a lot more rocky 
meteorites than iron
meteorites," Squyres said. "We've been seeing lots of cobbles out on the 
plains, and this raises the
possibility that some of them may in fact be meteorites. We may be 
investigating some of those in
coming weeks. The key is not what we'll learn about meteorites -- we have lots 
of meteorites on
Earth -- but what the meteorites can tell us about Meridiani Planum."
