So Nasa have landed thier Mars Exploration
Rover. And all is well. That is super. When you stop and think
about it it’s bloody amazing. 300 million miles and it drops
down and starts taking snapshots. Thoses are photos of the surface
of Mars, really amazing. It is a shame that Beagle II has not made
contact but there are still some options left yet.
You have to feel for the little guy but in the end there were so
many more options for errors because of the limited budget and size
that it’s amazing that it made it that far. I really want it
to be found and made to work and even to find out some really
interesting facts but I think that is just my English support for
the little guy.
Mars looks quite nice from the pictures!
