I find this strangely unsettling. The Mars Phoenix lander has its own Twitter feed…in the first person.
Odyssey was quiet today and I didn’t get new commands. Will continue taking pics for that high-res color panorama everyone asks about!
Even better, it appears that Phoenix is kind of a smartass.
Team has named 3 spots where I’m going to collect samples: baby bear, mama bear, and papa bear. One of them should be just right :D
The feed is updated a couple of times a day with news about Phoenix’s activities. It’s a neat and somewhat surreal way to follow the mission’s progress.
