Phoenix Has Landed
NASA's Phoenix probe has landed on Mars.
I couldn't identify a planet, star, constellation, or astronomical object to save my life, but I'm enough of a space geek to get choked up over launches and landings. This latest NASA Mars mission is exciting not least because it is the first soft landing on Mars since the Viking landings more than 30 years ago.
I can't wait for the first pictures to come through later this evening.
