Pictured above on the lower right, a large crater -- about 100 kilometers across -- has unusual dark material of unknown composition near its center. ... If so, the composition of the dark mound might be similar to the composition of some mysterious dark ring s also recently discovered on Mercury. Alternatively, the dark material could be related to an unusual composition of the impacting rock . ...

Next: Abstract Towers Up: Domain Selection Previous: Domain Requirements . The domain chosen was the design of several types of towers which can be built using objects similar to PLAYSKOOL's . ... The idea is that different colored pieces have different costs, and manufacturability concerns, and the participants must take as much of this into account as possible and build a sixty inch tower out of the building materials. ... Details about these materials can be found in Table . ...
