Anyone knows a thing about a microphone on Phoenix?Seems like noone has mentioned it and I'm not sure now that theres one!


MARDI has a microphone, although it may not be turned on. http://www.msss.com/phoenix/mardi/index.html

There's a lot more to that story, though, and this isn't the thread for it.

A "transient event" affected MRO's UHF so they were unable to uplink Phoenix commands.

It looks like Phoenix "stained" most of the meso-polygon it landed in. (Also looks like it's smack dab in the middle of a meso-polygon as well)
