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

Is it me or is there a radial pattern of dark streaks around the dark 'impact' spot? I see about 5 streaks -maybe indicative of debris or dust-removal by the impact?
They don't seem to be related to the little crater itself. Nico -------------------- photographer, space imagery enthusiast, proud father and partner, and geek.

Nico  Thats a feature the Beagle team have noted too..... see the Beagle website www.beagle2.com In the closeup image (slide 7) you can see a few "fingers" of darker material protruding from the top of the crater - which has been interpreted as possible ejecta caused by Beagle 2 hiting the crater.
