Reply-To: WSFA members <WSFAlist at keithlynch.net> The lander/rover Spirit successfully landed on Mars. It will be joined by an identical lander/rover, Opportunity, in three weeks. Still no word from Beagle. Maybe they can drive Spirit or Opportunity over to Beagle and see what's wrong with it. Probably not, though. It's a big planet, with just about exactly as much dry land area as our own planet has. -- Keith F.
