Volunteers asked to help find dead spacecraft on Mars

Scientists have invited the public to trawl high-resolution images for
signs of NASA's Mars Polar Lander, which went silent on arrival at
Mars in 1999. Finding the wreckage might explain why the mission
failed.

"If we can find the Mars Polar Lander and be convinced we understand
what we're looking at, it might provide some clues as to what went
wrong," says Alfred McEwen of the University of Arizona in Tucson, US.
"There could be lessons there that are applicable to future landers."
