So is this good, or will it just turn out to be a rather disappointing off-season special with 10?

It isn't anything yet. One satellite has detected this lake, but another one hasn't, even though they both scanned the same area. So it might not exist at all.

But if it does...well, it'll be an interesting place to explore, once we have the infrastructure to do so.

I just hope the planet doesn't end up populated by assholes like Elon Musk.

Every time I've played Terraforming Mars, somebody played indentured labour, so I'm 98% sure that assholes will take over Mars.
