The University of Arizona proudly announced Sunday that their Phoenix Mars Lander had safely descended to the surface of the "Red Planet" and was successfully sending back information.The Phoenix mission marks a great success for UA and NASA on the heels of the failures in the past to land equipment on the planet and have it transmit data to the Earth.
According to the project website at UA:
Launched in August 2007, the Phoenix Mars Mission is the first in NASA's Scout Program. Phoenix is designed to study the history of water and habitability potential in the Martian arctic's ice-rich soil."While not paranormal in nature, the project represents the scientific pursuit of the unknown and putting long held ideas about a previously "unknown" environment to the test.
In honor of the University of Arizona's success I am pleased to share a great piece of music from Wishbone Ash: "Phoenix":
