I guess we should get some firecrackers and done blowed these things up right purty like.

Isn't she the missing link, scientist have been searching for?

Still alive after 2 million years.

That's right, she is not quite alive. She is the Living Dead.

As a floating puddle of molten iron-nickel in space, they might tend to form little balls. A sphere has the lowest surface area to volume ration, so forming a sphere is a way for the molten metal to minimize surface energy. If the outside quenched and solidified while a large amount of gas was still in the metal, the inside might form pockets of gas and be spongy.

Reminds me of Prince Rupert's drops... Molten glass is allowed to drop into a bucket of cold water, instantly freezing the outside surface into a teardrop shape, then the hot glass inside cools, contracts and adheres to the sides leaving a near-perfect vacuum void in the middle. I wonder if spherical ones have been done in micro-gravity environments.

I don't have an explanation for the ring around the equator of these things

Stretch marks.

Perfect spheroids are favored by any natural process that involves a great deal of surface energy. A sphere has the lowest ratio of surface area to volume, so the best way to minimize surface energy is form a sphere.

Correct. When I was a kid I remember listening to someone on Long John Nebel's radio show talking about similar "perfect metallic spheroids of alien origin" but I think these were in Czechoslovakia or thereabouts.

We have a nice 3D picture of some of those from one of the Rovers. Of course, I call them Martian Moquis because I didn't hear the phrase "Martian blueberry" for a long time after I'd first seen them.

The delivery system for 'transpermia' don'tcha know! There use to be pix on the net of these things taken in S. Africa and in Czechoslovakia.

LOL! I only read a tiny bit of it but it's funny as heck! Even though it goes on and on about nothing like a (l)unix man page, it at least made me laugh!

Plus, I totally agree with his assessment of academics.

Academics, epidemics, pandemics: pretty much three words describing the same thing.

Oh, yeah, we all know spheres cannot be natural!

Alien products?
