From: http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/mer/ Opportunity Mars Rover Targeted For Launch No Earlier Than July 7 The second Mars Exploration Rover, Opportunity, is now targeted for launch no earlier than Monday, July 7. The delay is due to the failure of a battery cell associated with a component of the launch vehicle's flight termination system. The battery must be removed and replaced. -------------- From: http://www.spacedaily.com/2003/03070....e7mu6qrn.html Power glitch hits Mars Express, but mission should be OK: ESA PARIS (AFP) Jul 02, 2003 Europe's first solo mission to Mars has been hit by a 30-percent shortfall in power, but this should not affect any of its goals, the European Space Agency (ESA) here said Wednesday. Ground engineers checking out the Mars Express as it heads towards the Red Planet came across a faulty connection between its solar wings and a unit that distributes the electricity generated by those panels, ESA said in a mission update. -- rk, Citizen, Noooo Yawk "Sometimes when you connect the dots you get a picture.
