I watched this happen. Neither chute deployed and it just tumbled and tumbled. It just smashed into the desert floor like a rock.

Hmm a disk shaped extraterrestrial craft crash lands and embeds itself in the desert soil.

This is just another Roswell type cover-up. This was really an interstellar space craft that crashed, but the cover story is now coming out.

More alien bodies for Area 51 to study though. And just watch - in the next few years we'll have some pretty cool technology released by Bell Labs that someone "invented"...

The parachute didn't melt. NASA has smart people that figured it out. The simply sent Genesis at night.

The 'Project Icarus' name might have been a mistake.

BTW, don't stare at the sun...
