Default Can Spirit help find Beagle2?

Even if one of the rovers was within a few miles (and they aren't), it
would take their lifespan to search for it. The rovers have their own
missions and I wouldn't want to see us give up any science for the
poor Beagle.


Yes, primary mission comes first. I would like to see an extended far-ranging
mission after that though, if possible. It seems like 2 miles per month long
range exploration would be possible, or does it need to stay close to the
landing area? Spirit is way too far from Beagle, but possibly they could
re-direct Opportunity to an alternate area closer to Beagle.

(They shoulda sent a 9-lives cat like Sojourner, instead of a little Puppy.
