re: Beagle II is in part a Mars Society Mission...another lie

According to this Space.com story:

http://www.space.com/searchforlife/mars_microscope_000817.html

While the microscope is on the Beagle 2's manifest of science instruments, the Mars Society's claim of sponsorship of the device is incorrect, said a top official of the Beagle 2 project.

"This deal certainly does not exist," said Colin Pillinger, lead scientist for the Beagle 2 effort, and professor of planetary sciences research at the Open University, located in Milton Keynes, the United Kingdom."

The Mars Society tried to make claim it was sponsoring the Beagle 2 microscope and Dr. Pillinger in a very nice way, says it ain't so...

So Chris, it looks like you lied again.
