Part ​ ​1:
Fresh ​ ​out ​ ​of ​ ​college ​ ​with ​ ​your ​ ​degree ​ ​in ​ ​Microbiology, ​ ​you​ ​have ​ ​landed ​ ​your ​ ​‘first ​ ​real ​ ​job’ ​ ​as ​ ​a
scientist ​ ​with ​ ​“DuPunt”, ​ ​a ​ ​company ​ ​that ​ ​specializes ​ ​in ​ ​the ​ ​development ​ ​and ​ ​production ​ ​of
polyurethane ​ ​derivatives ​ ​(specialized ​ ​‘plastics’). ​ ​​ ​Dupunt ​ ​worked ​ ​with ​ ​NASA ​ ​to ​ ​design ​ ​the
sample ​ ​return ​ ​vehicle ​ ​(SRV) ​ ​that ​ ​was ​ ​responsible ​ ​for ​ ​the ​ ​return ​ ​of ​ ​Martian ​ ​soil ​ ​samples,
described ​ ​in ​ ​the ​ ​journal ​ ​article ​ ​by​ ​Kenneth ​ ​Nealson ​ ​(Ann ​ ​N ​ ​Y ​ ​Acad ​ ​Sci. ​ ​2001​ ​950:241-58).
The ​ ​DuPunt ​ ​CEO ​ ​was ​ ​very ​ ​interested ​ ​to ​ ​have ​ ​her ​ ​company ​ ​support ​ ​the ​ ​NASA ​ ​mission ​ ​to ​ ​find
life ​ ​in ​ ​the ​ ​universe. ​ ​She ​ ​also ​ ​realized ​ ​that ​ ​participation ​ ​in ​ ​the ​ ​mission ​ ​offered ​ ​DuPunt ​ ​Company
an ​ ​uique, ​ ​high ​ ​profile ​ ​business ​ ​opportunity. ​ ​​ ​He ​ ​convinced ​ ​NASA ​ ​to ​ ​showcase ​ ​a ​ ​new
polyurethane ​ ​protective ​ ​coating ​ ​on​ ​the ​ ​robot ​ ​carried ​ ​in ​ ​the ​ ​SRV. ​ ​His ​ ​idea ​ ​was ​ ​to ​ ​dress ​ ​the ​ ​robot
like ​ ​the ​ ​singer ​ ​Elvis ​ ​Presley ​ ​and ​ ​bring ​ ​wide ​ ​attention ​ ​to ​ ​the ​ ​Mars ​ ​mission. ​ ​As ​ ​part ​ ​of​ ​this ​ ​public
relations ​ ​campaign, ​ ​he ​ ​has ​ ​named ​ ​the ​ ​robot ​ ​​ ​“ELVIS” ​ ​(Extraterrestrial ​ ​landing ​ ​vehicle ​ ​integrated
sampler).
You ​ ​are ​ ​not ​ ​quite ​ ​sure ​ ​why ​ ​DuPunt ​ ​has ​ ​a ​ ​Microbiologist ​ ​on​ ​staff, ​ ​but ​ ​you​ ​are ​ ​about ​ ​to ​ ​find ​ ​out
why ​ ​the ​ ​company ​ ​desperately ​ ​needs ​ ​one ​ ​now.
Your ​ ​boss ​ ​has ​ ​called ​ ​you​ ​into ​ ​his ​ ​office. ​ ​​ ​“Read ​ ​this ​ ​article!” ​ ​he ​ ​says, ​ ​pushing ​ ​the ​ ​front ​ ​page ​ ​of
The ​ ​Washington ​ ​Post ​ ​across ​ ​his ​ ​desk ​ ​to ​ ​you.​ ​​ ​Here ​ ​is ​ ​the ​ ​article:
ELVIS ​ ​NAKED, ​ ​SKINLESS ​ ​UPON
RETURN ​ ​FROM ​ ​OUTERSPACEThe ​ ​recent ​ ​return ​ ​to ​ ​Earth ​ ​of ​ ​Martian ​ ​soil
sampler ​ ​ELVIS ​ ​has ​ ​provided ​ ​scientists ​ ​with
the ​ ​opportunity ​ ​to ​ ​determine ​ ​if ​ ​Martian ​ ​soil
contains ​ ​viable ​ ​microorganisms. ​ ​Although
NASA ​ ​scientists ​ ​have ​ ​made ​ ​great ​ ​advances
in ​ ​understanding ​ ​the ​ ​physical ​ ​and ​ ​chemical
conditions ​ ​on​ ​the ​ ​surface ​ ​of ​ ​Mars, ​ ​perhaps
the ​ ​most ​ ​interesting ​ ​discoveries ​ ​are ​ ​yet ​ ​to
come ​ ​as ​ ​biological ​ ​scientists ​ ​begin ​ ​to
analyze ​ ​the ​ ​soil ​ ​samples. ​ ​Designed ​ ​to ​ ​gather
samples ​ ​and ​ ​maintain ​ ​them ​ ​in ​ ​their ​ ​normal
atmospheric ​ ​and ​ ​temperature ​ ​conditions,
EVLIS ​ ​is ​ ​a ​ ​sophisticated ​ ​robot ​ ​and ​ ​is ​ ​the
most ​ ​expensive ​ ​component ​ ​of ​ ​the ​ ​SRV
probe. ​ ​Inspired ​ ​by ​ ​the ​ ​acronym ​ ​for ​ ​the ​ ​unit
(ELVIS), ​ ​workers ​ ​constructed ​ ​this ​ ​robot ​ ​to
resemble ​ ​music ​ ​legend ​ ​Elvis ​ ​Presley, ​ ​and
even ​ ​fashioned ​ ​a ​ ​white ​ ​Spandex ​ ​jumpsuit,
made ​ ​out ​ ​of ​ ​DuPunt ​ ​polyurethane ​ ​to ​ ​enclose
the ​ ​sampler.
​ ​​ ​​ ​DuPunt ​ ​Chemical ​ ​company ​ ​has ​ ​benefited
tremendously ​ ​from ​ ​all ​ ​of ​ ​the ​ ​publicity, ​ ​and
has ​ ​seen ​ ​its ​ ​sales ​ ​of ​ ​polyurethane ​ ​quadruple.
This ​ ​‘human ​ ​connection’ ​ ​has ​ ​been
instrumental ​ ​in ​ ​convincing ​ ​Congress ​ ​to
provide ​ ​the ​ ​necessary ​ ​funding ​ ​for ​ ​NASA
and ​ ​its ​ ​many ​ ​related ​ ​space ​ ​exploration
programs.
​ ​​ ​​ ​However, ​ ​the ​ ​successful ​ ​completion ​ ​of ​ ​the
SRV ​ ​mission ​ ​has ​ ​generated ​ ​a ​ ​mystery, ​ ​one
that ​ ​has ​ ​led ​ ​to ​ ​accusations ​ ​of ​ ​contractors
providing ​ ​substandard ​ ​materials ​ ​(in
particular ​ ​defective ​ ​plastics) ​ ​used ​ ​in ​ ​the
SRV ​ ​or ​ ​of ​ ​someone ​ ​intentionally ​ ​sabotaging
the ​ ​plastic ​ ​components ​ ​of ​ ​the ​ ​SRV ​ ​in ​ ​an
​ ​This ​ ​opening ​ ​was ​ ​part ​ ​of ​ ​a ​ ​special,
televised ​ ​‘welcome ​ ​home’ ​ ​ceremony ​ ​in
which ​ ​​ ​ELVIS ​ ​was ​ ​supposed ​ ​to ​ ​‘dance’
down ​ ​the ​ ​SRV ​ ​exit ​ ​ramp ​ ​and ​ ​speak ​ ​his
trademark ​ ​words, ​ ​“Thank ​ ​you…thank ​ ​you
very ​ ​much ​ ​for ​ ​supporting ​ ​this ​ ​critical
space ​ ​exploration ​ ​mission.”
​ ​​ ​​ ​NASA ​ ​scientists ​ ​and ​ ​on-lookers ​ ​at ​ ​the
ceremony ​ ​were ​ ​shocked ​ ​to ​ ​find ​ ​that
ELVIS’s ​ ​jumpsuit ​ ​had ​ ​been ​ ​reduced ​ ​to ​ ​a
slimy ​ ​puddle. ​ ​Even ​ ​more ​ ​distressing ​ ​was
the ​ ​deterioration ​ ​of ​ ​ELVIS’s ​ ​‘skin’ ​ ​(a
version ​ ​of ​ ​Lycra ​ ​specially ​ ​developed ​ ​to
resemble ​ ​human ​ ​skin). ​ ​​ ​This ​ ​too ​ ​was
