It is rising out of the ashes of the previous Mars Program...

Phoenix is a flight of an already existing Lander ... the one which was going to fly, but after the failure of MPL they shelved.

I don't think this has anything to do with Lockheed. Go rain on someone else's parade with your paranoia!

        Scientific data from NASA is evil! - alcaray - 8/6/2003 10:05:28 PM
        
        No its not: it's simply biased - E.P. Grondine - 8/8/2003 4:23:17 PM
        
        techincal info (and specs of the instrument that recorded it) are not biased - alcaray - 8/8/2003 4:39:09 PM
