Interesting if it found ice that fast, and it's not at the ice caps of where they predicted all the water/ice to be. I'd say these tests are going very well and hope the test results will verify some good data. Only it's to bad that it would take some time for the lander to come back (if it comes back) with some samples. Why must the planets be so far away!
