Certainly. I still have to think their unit cost is cheaper because we sent two. I think a single MER would have cost more than half the pair -- for purposes of comparing movie production costs and Mars rovers.

Something of a mix of missions there. Phoenix is the first of the Mars Scout program missions (every other opportunity - in the $400M ish range)
It takes the 'chassis' of the cancelled 2001 lander - but the instruments are mainly ones designed for the failed 1998 Mars Polar Lander. The instruments for the 2001 Lander ( called APEX.. Athena Precursor Experiment as a Mossbauer, Mini-TES and Pancam ) ended up as MER's Athena Payload . Doug |

I am SO excited about this mission. I have just sent my application form for the Student Interns Program. Hopefully, nothing will go wrong, and I will be picked to spend a year and a half on this project. Yeah!!

Wow , I feel sorry for Venus Lander It would be awful to live like that
On the other hand I cannot wait for those Martian Polar pics , I have waited far too long for them , and I believe it WILL revolutionize our understanding of Mars. It will NOT fail and is only the first of the scout missions that will lead us to the greatest adventure in space exploration history , Another giant leap and a human on Mars! |
