Hope it doesn't effect the samples they pull. Too bad they couldn't reach out a little farther to avoid the exhaust from the retro rockets. Hope it doesn't effect the samples they pull.

And... why nasa don't show color pics? And... million dollars and a Hercules work to show to world tons of unfocus pics? News's polemics! There's new deceptions!

You may notice that in color photos there is stone in left corner that has been moved! There is a clear mark behind that stone that show's that stone was recenltly moved. Nasa said nothing about stone, did they move it, I assume that they did!!? Or we have some natural cause for this moving? They have published photos in color.

It's shiny and is very akin to dirty ice that lies beneath the dirt here on Earth - I've many times uncovered such samples when I cleaned dirty ruts in pavement in front of my house in spring :) The hole dug by Phoenix looks to me like a lump (layer) of ice.

The shadow of Phoenix will be of some bit sticking out to the right and the bit with the camera on itself Ratbiter – look at the rocks on the surface, the shadow in Yeti is on the other side.

Again, I know it's not that at all- but still, I can't look at this picture and NOT see a wet little puddle forming...
