Well since we all seem to be a little OT today on rovers, How do they KNOW Beagle2 landed safetly ? I followed the Beagle2 landing pretty closly and did not see anything indicating they had any contact once it seperated from Mars Express. Except that it did seperate safely. I did not see anything like the pictures the US rovers sent as they were attempting to land, although they my have sent these after the landed. Just curious.
