Martian soil 'could support life'

Okay folks, get your space suits ready, you can grown aspargus on mars!!
Martian soil appears to contain sufficient nutrients to support life - or, at least, asparagus - Nasa scientists believe.

OK - I'll come clean. It's a joke. We've all become so peed off with Earthlings chucking their metalwork at us. The last straw was that funny bouncing thing which caused mayhem amongst the youngsters. So, just a bit of acidity adjustment and I can report back to the Great Council that we've got you all really excited. Serves you right.
