Perhaps when I wake up if this thread is still around I will try.

Keep in mind there are several types of ice. Also keep in mind that the mission was to never prove or disprove if the planet has life, that is just a byproduct of the missions main goal. To answer if there are organic compound i.e. carbons. The focal point is the ice itself and its compositions. Time wise and testing, well they wish to maneuver into a proper location. Proceed to dig down a bit. Then scoop up small amounts at measured increments with each placed in a mini oven that will burn the material and examine the compounds as it burns. All the while controlled from someone here on Earth.

May I honestly suggest you do more than just pull your news from CNN or some other very condensed source, specially when the topic is a wee bit more complex that if Britney was wearing panties.
