To be a Rock and not to Roll.

In this Solar System,wich is our reference,I ask you: What is a Rock?

Surely at the center wich is our Sun, no such common thing as mere rock can be found?

So Outwards from The CENTER(Sol/Sun)...we progress in search of a rock.
The First Rock from the sun is Mercury/Messenger of the Gods.

In The Base Ten Metric System (S.I.)
The STANDARD of Science .
Here is the very first measure on the planetary fact sheet from NASA.



Mass (1024kg)
0.330

Mean Temperature (C)
167
As a control,bifurcate temp.(167 x 2 =334)

Now narrow down to two decimal places in Metric Units.
Mass and Mean Temperature,is currently compatible to 2 points.0.330=.33 / 334=333 as far as i'm concerned- when narrowed to 2 decimal places it is not an arguement...

=33 because of the following logic...wich eliminates US Units as inferior to the message in metric.


So.
On the First rock from the sun.
If we Convert for our USA friends who use the Older Way of doing things we can convert back to these awkward US units.


Mass (1021tons)
0.364


Mean Temperature (F)
333

If a message was concealed using tetrahedral numerals...Mercury,the messenger certainly may help rule out coincidence.
Either way you measure...it's rather in plain view.
This is the first place where rocks are to be found.
The Conditions the current DATA describes is not the same as then as it is now.
It is assumed current conditions are the latest in system evolution and not representational of previous epochs.Wich of course nestles well within the Cooling Phase and formation of the first 4 rocks: Mercury,venus,earth/moon,mars.

For Certain aspects of the Cydonian question...we obviously need possible life sustaining Rocks(Planets) to be evident other than Earth and this is just a technical mention that terrestrial(rocky)planets play a role in Geologic/planetary science.

Never mind that the "messenger of the gods" may be a massively(pun intended!) thermal beacon via Metrics.

Here's the old way things were done.
