The lander carried few i f any instruments, and was intended as a demonstrator for a new safe landing method. I'll get ahead of the facts and call it "not successful." BTW, this was a joint venture with the Russian space agency. This brings up to zero the number of successful Russian probe missions to mars (though they've done quite well on Venus) Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

Seems to be based on the ability of life to survive in extreme conditions, and these newer rovers ability to dig and analyze core soil samples much deeper than before. Still that would be an enormous discovery, even if only microbes. "Trumpsplain (def.) explaining absolute nonsense said by TRUMP. |
