You can follow NASA’s Phoenix Mars Lander tonight as it attempts to touch down on Mars. Catch the action live on NASA TV via the Internet. The coverage starts at 6 pm EST with 7:53 pm EST being the first possible time for confirmation that the Phoenix has landed. I’m quite curious to see this coverage as I still remember grainy pictures of moon landings via an old Black & White TV. It seems a little science fiction-ish that we can watch this on our 4 lb laptops at the neighborhood Starbucks while connected via Wi-Fi.

    Thanks for this great news!

    Being a lover of astronomy, this is a must see for me. Last time, they got vague pictures of life forms there; statues blah blah. Lets see what they get this time ;)
