Re:Has anyone been following the Beagle Mars thing?
I was always sceptical that it would work. The team just didn’t seem very professional to me 🙁
The landing was always going to be the biggest problem. If they could inflate the bouncy-ball balloon lander at the right time without it exploding [b][i](like it did on all the tests)[/i][/b] then they might have stood a chance, in the end though, it seems like a big old waste of money.
