Quote:
Liquid volcanic rock cools rapidly as it hits water, flash-freezing to form mostly glass. Without water, it takes longer to cool and forms crystals within the groundmass . . .

* Click and comment on Robinson Crusoe on Mars. Very Happy

If you haven't seen that one in a while, here's the trailer — and it's one the best trailers ever!
