I challenge you not to look at this and make a ping/spring/boing happy sort of a noise.

Neither -- "much of the soil remained lodged in the robotic arm's scoop after the attempt to deliver the sample to the TEGA. "
See http://planetary.s3.amazonaws.com/data/pho...9_16B80MDM1.jpg, which was taken at 07:55, which was after the dumping (which happened some time between 07:33 and 07:49). --Emily -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

QUOTE (elakdawalla @ Jul 26 2008, 06:49 PM)  http://planetary.s3.amazonaws.com/data/pho...9_16B80MDM1.jpg, which was taken at 07:55, which was after the dumping (which happened some time between 07:33 and 07:49). This is a slightly more exposed picture taken at 7:51 and shows a bit more clearly that the >left< side blob of (wonderful icy) material let go but not the middle nor right. Hence door #1 got the best part of the sample! Just bad stinkin' luck! Paul |
