1. TOP SECRET MISSION

2. BRIEFING  Yesterday, our intelligence sources intercepted a troubling message from a high ranking individual in the Canadian Military.  The message suggested that Canada is in the process of acquiring nuclear warheads on the black market and is planning to use them to take over the WORLD.  In the meantime, the message also suggested that Canada has been secretly stockpiling these warheads on the OLDEST islands of the Cook Islands Group in the Pacific.  The geologist who the CIA sent out into the field to determine which of the Cooks was the oldest mysteriously wound up dead.

3. YOUR MISSION:  You must decipher the data that this geologist collected before he died and determine which of the Cook Islands is oldest so that our forces can be dispatched there to stop Canada from taking over the WORLD!!  The geologist had narrowed the search down to three islands: Rarotonga, Aitutaki, and Mangaia. While all of these islands are volcanic, their vastly different appearances suggested that they were formed at different times.  You will split into three groups. Each group will examine photos and maps of one of these islands. The groups will try to pinpoint geologic features (clues) on their respective islands that they think will help determine its relative age.  Each group will then report its findings back to the rest of the agents.
