Growing pet peeve here. When NASA fails, the stupid, arrogant Americans aren't up to the job and the Europeans can do it better because they pool resources - as if NASA doesn't cooperate and coordinate with tems from other countries. When the European Space Agency fails....well, the Americans couldn't do it either and it's really hard to succeed.

I recall cracking up when I first saw the animated presentation of how the Beagle was going to bounce across the planet's serface and deploy. Nice to do things on the cheap, but it looks to me like the gang just peed away $37-million.

Let's hope our Spirit and Opportunity has better luck next week.

Apparently this Beagle is acting just like ALL beagles. They run away and are never heard from again, because they are too stupid to know their way home.
