Did I just hear on the Phoenix press briefing that MRO
was to try and image Phoenix "...on the way down."?!

It's what I heard too

MOC2 WA didn't see it with MER - and thus I doubt MARCI would see Phoenix- but I imagine a carefully aimed CTX might get it.

Ugh...any day you look at it, those are nasty times for following the launch from the West Coast...should be a beautiful dawnlit or nighttime launch though! Can't wait to see your pictures, Ben smile.gif
