Yeah, just like the rest of us, Mr C. is getting on in years* and can't always be counted on to keep us scientifically informed. I just hope he doesn't nap through the landing.

Thanks Mr P'.  :thumbs:

* truthfully speaking, I'm just razzing him a little here, I think he is traveling and not in tune with his usual sources of info. He recently posted that he saw a band in Nashville, yet he lives in Illinois.

After seven months of travel, Unity survived the seven minutes of horror and successfully touched down on MARS.

Is that Marvin the Martian?

What we need to see here from one of you artist's is; a C-14 passing in the distance with him driving.. <evil grin>

Ride safe, Ted

Nothing gets past you, eh Marty?     :chugbeer:

No naps during the landing for me. I only nap while I'm driving.  :o

I wish. Have you seen the kilogram thread? ..most of it got past me and is still traveling, of course it wil never get where it's going because of this:
y = 1/x   As x tends toward infinity (works the other way too, as x tends toward zero), what happens to y.

We keep hitting Mars with landers, but we can't seem to find a way to fix potholes.
