Europe's Mars Express extends all its antennas




Mars Express deploying the erstwhile Beagle 2 lander.


"The MARSIS radar system can probe the surface and subsurface, mapping out the Red Planet's geological structure and looking for the telltale signature of underground water reservoirs. If liquid water exists beneath the surface, as some scientists suspect, that could provide a refuge for Martian life -- or at least a resource for earthly visitors during future missions."

I just read a book, "Divine Intervention" by Wharton, that would make you really look at the lander in a whole new light. Awesome book, first few chapters are a little slow reading, but then... hooked.
