Life-bearing Mars rock named after Ivanhoe member

      Comments Off on Life-bearing Mars rock named after Ivanhoe member

The rovers currently on the planet Mars, Opportunity and Curiosity, have given scientists insight into rock formations that once bore life.  One of the rocks discovered was deemed a “Wopmay” rock–a name from similar rock formations found on the Canadian Shield, then named after WWI flying ace, Bro. Wilfred “Wop” May, who, at one time, was a member of our Lodge.  Bro. May was also a lodge officer during Ivanhoe’s historic meeting up at Coppermine, NT.  You can read the story of that meeting and the members present here.
