[QUOTE]Originally posted by NaturalResources: [QB] The Mars Polar Lander? I doubt it, they never were able to obtain photographs of the crashed spacecraft using MRO's HiRISE camera but Phoenix landed so far away from where MPL was supposed to land that the odds of it being the other lander are slim to none. As I understood it, the lander crashed because the computer software for the thrusters was designed in the EU and was using meters rather than feet when it tried to judge where to cut off the thrusters and land... it thought it was 3 feet off the ground when it was really 3 meters.
