Britain deposits US$85 million on Mars

Post by doG » Fri Jan 16, 2015 9:13 pm

Britain's infamous "Beagle 2" spacecraft, once dubbed "a heroic failure" by the nation's Astronomer Royal, has been found on Mars -- 11 years after it went missing searching for extraterrestrial life.

Beagle 2, part of the European Space Agency's Mars Express mission, had been due to land on Mars on Christmas Day 2003, but went missing on December 19, 2003. Until now, nothing had been heard from it since then.
The tiny Mars lander has been found on the surface of the red planet.
It was built by British scientists for about 50 million pounds ($85 million).
The plan was for it to report back from the Mars' surface using instruments designed to help search for signs of life, but nothing was heard after it was dropped off to make its landing :lol:
