This is cool; a Japanese research ship is going to pierce the Mohorovicic Discontinuity and bring up a sample of active mantle. They're hoping it'll have microbes in it - there's a theory that life on earth began in the mantle, of all places.
As an added bonus, Japan will get +6 minerals and +6 energy for working that tile. (Special bonus geek points if you know what the heck that refers to.)

Planet can handle the boreholes; just tree farm + centauri preserve, snag the Pholus Mutagen and keep a Green economy, and you can pretty much do whatever you want.
True. However, I like to play as the Pirates, and drown the world. All those pesky forests cut down on my greenhouse gas generation.
Aren't they afraid that they will release D. Compose if they go into the Moho Discontinuity?
Bonus points to whoever gets that reference.
