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.

I feel for the Beagle folks, they came so close and are missing out on doing a lot of work with Beagle sniffing around Mars for new discoveries.
