We'd like to congratulate NASA on landing the Phoenix Mars Lander. Unlike the rovers, which land on the Martian surface fairly slowly, the Phoenix barreled in at nearly twice the speed of sound, and then had to stop short as it plummeted through the atmosphere. And it worked. So nice job guys. Now they start digging in the arctic soil looking for life, until the cold winter comes and freezes the lander solid. It's nice when NASA still inspires and impresses. May you find some frozen (and friendly) Mars life forms soon.
