More spookyness from Mars baffles the scientists. They found Tridymite, which is a silica-based mineral that only occurs in super hot temperatures. They occur on earth near volcano sites after eruptions.

I wonder....
What?!? And here I thought Mars was a planet of uniform, endless rocky wasteland with no history. To think there was such a rare and mythical thing like "geological activity"... what a marvelous discovery! Quick! Call the yellow press!
