Now that the University of Arizona has taken over the ground mission of the Phoenix Mars Lander, they have posted the first few images from the ground of the northern pole of Mars! You can read my live blogging of the Phoenix Mars Lander touching down for additional information and links.
Thanks for stopping by!
Driving home after a wonderful Easter weekend!
Orbital debris seems to be on a course moving a bit faster than ISS. I’ll try to take more pictures if it swings by.
Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.
He has risen!
Ἀληθῶς ἀνέστη! Αμήν!
Spoiler alert…
Oh we’ve been tracking!! Listened from the other room as Gordon watched the NASA coverage…my favourite was the countdown to touchdown and all the cheering in the background!
Exciting events!
I wonder why they called it Phoenix - they already used that name for a Lunar Mission. Should have named it after the Angel of the Garden, since we will likely engineer Mars to be the new Garden of Eden. Exciting, though.
