DILLON’S NURSERY & Garden Center owner Paul Dillon holds
the deadbolt lock from the door thieves smashed to enter his
business Tuesday night, June 5. The culprits took some large
pots and bags of soil, Dillon said. He believes the thieves to be
marijuana growers, but ‘probably not very good ones, if they have
to steal stuff to grow it in,’ he said. While he doubts he’ll ever
catch those responsible, Dillon said, ‘If we do, they’re gonna be
sorry.’ (Photo by Michelle Binker/‘Illinois Valley News’)

Chomping Rocks on Mars
Someday astronauts may go to Mars. One of their science chores may be
to continue the work being done now by rover robots studying Mars rocks.
Scientists want to know what’s in those rocks. They hold clues to the planet’s
mysterious past. To learn about the rocks, Mars astronauts will have to smash
them and put the rock powder into an analyzer. The analyzer will detect what
minerals are present.
But chopping those rocks into powder first will be a tough job. Whew!
But first, though, NASA is planning to send more robotic explorers to
Mars. But how can robotic Mars landers or rovers break up rocks for an ana-
lyzer?
This is where NASA’s special Planetary Instrument Definition and De-
velopment Program comes in. This program helped some NASA engineers to
invent the needed Mars Rock Crusher. Only six inches tall, it can chew the
hardest rocks into a powder.
The Mars Rock Crusher has two metal plates that work sort of like our
jaws. One plate stays still, while the other plate moves. Rocks are dropped
into the jaw between the two plates. As the movable plate moves in and out,
rocks are crushed be-
tween the plates. The jaw
opening is larger toward
the top and smaller to-
wards the bottom. So when larger rocks are crushed near the top, the pieces
fall down into the narrower part of the jaw, where they are crushed again. This
process repeats until the rock particles are small enough to fall through a slit
where the two plates are closest.
Engineers have tested the Mars Rock Crusher with Earth rocks similar to
those expected to be found on Mars. One kind of rock is hematite. The rusted
iron in hematite and other rocks help give Mars its nickname “The Red
Planet.” Another kind of rock is magnetite, so-called because it is magnetic!
Rocks made by volcanoes are called basalts. Some of the volcanoes on Mars
may have produced basalts with a lot of a mineral called olivine. We call
those olivine basalts, and the Rock Crusher chews them up nicely too.
