I understand the reasons for landing in the flat areas. They are safe and are more likely to have water evidence. But I am longing for the day when we drop one down in the big canyon and next to the awesome volcano. Now THOSE are going to be some cool pictures.

How odd that they would list Beagle 2 as a "landing". Under that criteria they should also identify the Mars Polar Lander site as well. Come to think of it the Mars Observer orbiter "landed" about as effectively as Beagle.

Left out of this story by the Leftist Partisan Press is the fact that the Mar's Rover uncovered a tattered but still legible copy of a book entitled, "Mars in the Balance" apparently authored by a Martian politician eons ago, named Erogla.
