Crater may explain Beagle 2's silence

HOUSTON - The missing Beagle 2 may have landed or tumbled into a large undetected Martian crater, possibly destroying the tiny spacecraft or blocking its attempts to communicate with Earth, scientists said Monday.

Great Britain's 73-pound, life-seeking Mars lander has failed to make eight expected calls to Earth. Slowed by a parachute and impact-cushioning airbags, the craft plunged through the thin Martian atmosphere on Christmas Eve.

Billions down the drain

We don't know half the shit they are really doing.

Someday humans may have fo find another habitable planet to live on at the rate we're destroying and overpopulating this one. I hope they're working on figuring out how to make the moon and Mars habitable.

Hey I have an idea...
Maybe they should abandon safe fall entries and stop trying to bounce land heavy and highly sensitive equipment on the surface of a planet.

About as smart using q-tip as a fork.
Its just stupid.
