Misson accomplished!

Phoenix touched down on the Red Planet at 7:53 p.m. Eastern Time, May 25, 2008, in an arctic region called Vastitas Borealis or the northern polar plains of Mars.
They plan to do a variety of experiments to look for life and understand what the environment of the northern plain is like. However unfortunately barring a miracle Phoenix is unlikely to survive the harsh Martian winter and will be entombed in ice for quite a while waiting for someone to discover it.

So what do you guys think?
