why not go to the heat shield imact point?

I sure wish they would go have a look at the heat shield impact point. Perhaps if they get an extended mission they will go. It would seem like good engineering data for future missions to see what happened to it. Besides the hole it dug would probably be deeper than any they could dig with the rover wheels.

- Extremely cool image! Is there a name for that crater yet? - Buck Galaxy - 2/28/2004 8:09:24 PM
