Is it me or are the Phoenix Mars lander team [really] taking their time with this mars mission!??
A week in and they still haven't sampled the soil yet! Now clearly they know what they are doing and I don't, but given its -80 C millions of miles away and a really, really hostile environment.. if it where me, id not be taking any chances on time - things can go belly up awfully quickly out there! I sensed some frustration on this, listening to the Nasa press conference yesterday, between the engineers and the science team, so I just hope it continues to work, it could be awfully embarrassing if it packed up after a week and they had next to no science data!
