Wreckage of Beagle found scattered in Mars crater
Talk about being unlucky assuming this is confirmed. |

Yep. The rover was also programmed, if it didn't hear from the lander after a certain time, to assume that it might have wandered into a terrain feature that was blocking the radio signal, and to then automatically drive in a curve until it heard from the lander again. Nobody knows how far the Little Lost Rover drove after the lander failed, calling futilely for Mama. Pathetic, isn't it?
