Re: Fantastic Phobos
I suppose the Phobos lander doesn't have a seismograph and some dynamite. Nothing like knocking, to see who answers, inside.

Re: Fantastic Phobos
Ha, I watched "Robinson Crusoe on Mars" last night. There are so many romantic old theories about Mars, the reality may be even more bizarre.I suppose the Phobos lander doesn't have a seismograph and some dynamite. Nothing like knocking, to see who answers, inside.
The Chinese probe that is proposed to ride piggyback with the Phobos grunt mission should be used to properly survey Phobos for electrical activity before any landing is attempted and then observe the landing attempt. At least this way if there is another failure we will have in situ data of what happened.
Cheers!
p.s. sorry about the messy list on my previous post, it looked much neater in the preview!
