Elsewhere On Mars
There's still no word from Europe's Beagle 2 Mars lander. If it survived landing, Beagle should know be in Communication Search Mode 2, sending more frequent signals. The next major milestone will be early Wednesday morning, when the ESA Mars Express orbiter passes directly overhead of the landing site at an altitude of only about 315 km, creating what will probably be the greatest opportunity for contact ever. Addendum: This very complimentary article from across the pond is also interesting reading.
