Wow, I'm sure that'll be a real serious investigation, headed up by
the Beagle project director.


Well, he did know it better than anyone else, where you have to ask
who else could do it?

"We have found that the fault was not with the lander, but with
NASA!"


I don't think...

Unless NASA has been sending Beagle II viruses through MGS and
Odyssey, then all that NASA done was check over the Beagle II design
and give it their thumbs up.

The only bigger joke in this article is the assertion that Britain
will ever build a Beagle II...


Beagle III. Coming to a planet near you soon.
