The Schiaparelli lander, part of the European-led ExoMars 2016 mission, was supposed to touch down on the Red Planet this morning (Oct. 19) at 10:48 a.m. EDT (1448 GMT), but the spacecraft's handler's still don't know whether or not the historic maneuver was successful. You can watch a live webcast of the ExoMars landing here, courtesy of the European Space Agency (ESA).
"Initial signals were received via the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) as Schiaparelli descended to the surface of Mars, but no signal of touchdown yet," ESA officials wrote in a blog post at 11:12 a.m. EDT (1512 GMT) today. "This is not unexpected due to the very faint nature of the signal received at GMRT. A clearer assessment of the situation will come when ESA's Mars Express will have relayed the recording of Schiaparelli's entry, descent and landing."

Martians are holding their breaths
LOL
BenLurkin,
You are deeply brainwashed.
Wake up.
That is crazy.
Let me guess ,the lander dropped onto the only rock for miles
No, just onto the only Martian organism still alive on the planet. And the organism's last words were "Oh no, not again."
This lander is a proof-of-landing-ability for a future rover. Non-rechargeable batteries lasting 2-8 Martian days. This craft, that is.
Don't know the specs for the 2020 planned rover.
Run the gyroscope experiment.
I have done it myself.
The settings do NOT change.
This is NOT a trick.
This is NOT sarcasm.
Wake up.
Well, that’s all relative ...
What about a Foucault pendulum?
JusPasenThru,
I have not run a Foucault pendulum experiment.
I have run a precision gyroscope experiment.
I can vouch for the accuracy and repeatability of the gyroscope experiment.
I cannot do the same for the Foucault pendulum experiment.
Wrong.
Talk a bowling ball attached to the end of a long thin rope
suspend it in a vacuum room (build as necessay)
Set a bunch of bowling pins in a circle corresponding o the hour postions on a clock. The center of the circle will be where the ball hangs when it is suspended and not moving.
Set it swinging
In a 24 hour period it will traverse a full circle and knock down each pin.
This is because the earth rotates, but its momentum keeps it going in a straight line as the earth moves underr it.
I knew his post was going to lead to a good thread. That boy ain’t right in the head.
Mr. K,
Yahuah (God) says that the earth does not move. The gyroscope experiment confirms what he says in the Bible.
You have been presented with the means (gyroscope) to test the premise at very little or no cost to you.
You are presented below with Yahuah’s testimony as written in the Bible.
You may not be happy about it, but the truth is that the earth does not move.
You have been brainwashed. This is not your fault. Someone else did this to you.
I am merely pointing out the truth. It is up to you whether you walk in it or go back to sleep.
1 Chronicles 16:30
Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.
Psalm 93:1
The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.
Psalm 96:10
Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.
Psalm 104:5
Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.
And you interpret that the earth does not move in space?
what about earthquakes? are those lies too?
Mr. K,
With respect, earthquakes are real.
The “big lie,” however, is that the earth is a spinning ball.
It cannot be so. The gyroscope experiment is repeatable anywhere, any time, on the surface of the earth.
You have been lied to your whole life.
There are those whose entire agenda is to me keep you deceived, to hide the truth.
Waking up from this lie is shocking to your senses. You will probably be angry, and rightly so.
Those bastards are trying to hide God from you to increase the probability that you will reject God and go to hell. That is evil. That is despicable.
The truth is that you are a created being who is loved by your creator. He works through his sons and daughters to rescue those who have been deceived.
The earth is just as the Bible says it is.
The way of life is simple:
1) Turn away from sin (error).
2) Follow Yahusha (Jesus).
3) Accept the gift of eternal life that he bought for you by laying down his life for you.
