Holding On To Hope For Beagle 2

slasher999 writes "Scientists are still keeping their hopes up that they will be able to revive Beagle via the Mars Express mothership on 4 January. On that date the ship will be in the correct orbit and may then be able to revive the lander. Current theroies as to what may have gone wrong include the possibility that the landers on-board clock is incorrect and that the lander has been transmitting at incorrect times. Funny, I thought I heard that as of yesterday the batteries on the lander would have been depleted unless the lander had received an order to recharge its batteries."

Come on... go sit in the corner like I told you before. Heat braking was followed by parachute deployement. The fact that pathfinder used a couple of retro rockets to slow down final landing speed had nothing to do with heat breaking. Really, I mean it, go away. Sit in a corner. Suck on thumg, and wait until you're old enough to enter grown-up's discussions.
