NASA looking for the EASY button.

Well the sample was retrieved. Just can't seem to be able to get the arm to gather in the sample. Must have been inspected by NYCI.

I guess this was a lot for a joke.

Think of all the excellent work done to get this science platform in place to have a glitch retrieving samples.

Come on baby....... (how many of us been here, holding a key)

I've been having some fun the last few days watching NASA TV. The Shuttle of course is at the ISS and all is going well, and they've got full coverage of the all the action. The Station is growing quite nicely.

Interestingly there has been no obvious mention about it on the usual National News suspects. Only if something goes wrong do we find out about it.

...then again; I haven't really been watching the news that much...mostly NASA.

Your right about the Shuttle being up, I was talking about the Mars mission. Seems arms are a common topic. Sorry for not clarifying.

Having read Hoagland's "Dark Mission," I suspect that NASA may not have liked what this new probe found. On the other hand, it may be just a function of the arm having been manufactured by the lowest bidder. The gripping hand is that the Martians may have sabotaged the thing...

Maybe NASA needs to push the "JUST DO IT" button.

Oops; my bad. I was the one that wasn't very clear.

I guess what I meant was how sad it is that when something good is happening with NASA in general, we don't hear a thing about it. But when something...anything...goes wrong....

That's to bad. It will probably take a few days to get it figured out.
