(Y'know, part of me is kind of incensed since Wally Schirra wanted to name his Apollo 8 command module "Phoenix" in tribute to Grissom, White and Chaffee, and NASA wouldn't let him. They said it would bring up unpleasant reminders of the Apollo 1 fire. Yet now we've had 2 shuttles destroyed yet it's okay to use "Phoenix" now? I'm just sayin'.)

The Viking landers may have found Martian life after all ... and killed it.

Oh fer heaven's sake!

It's like a Far Side cartoon.

*sigh* *grumble*

Humans - 1
Aliens - 0

If this is really true I am NOT happy.

They are adjusting things for the upcoming Phoenix lander to take this into account. You need LIQUID. Not always WATER. Write this down somewhere, it may be useful.
