Rover Curiosity finds man’s dentures on Mars
NASA’s Mars Rover Curiosity has made an extraordinary discovery when sifting through a bucket of dust it had scooped up for analysis. After a three-dimensional image was beamed back to Earth, the find was immediately recognised as an upper denture set. A comparison with a database of dental records soon traced this to the late Albert Postlethwaite, a resident of Sheffield in the 1930s.
