These great hollow globes of artificial super-metals, and artificial transparent adamant, ranged in size from the earliest and smallest structures, which were no bigger than a very small asteroid, to spheres considerably larger than the Earth. (Olaf Stapledon, STAR MAKER)

What Lies Beneath?
NASA is narrowing site selection for 2016's InSight (Interior Exploration Using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport, now that's a mouthful!) mission to Mars to four potential areas. Alas, Valles Marineris did not win out (for good reasons!), but hopefully we'll land something in that spectacular area someday! (Where have I seen that lander before?)
