Phoenix Surpasses 90-day Milestone
----------------------------------------
September 5, 2008 | NASA's newest Martian lander has now been
scratching, digging, sniffing, baking and tasting samples of the Red
Planet's polar terrain for more than three months. How long can it

I am not clear exactly what the readers of sci.astro.amateur expect to
find here that they could not find elsewhere. Every day there is a
whole mass of material appearing in moderated groups that would appeal

I cannot recall any example of sci.astro.amateur being the first, or
only, place where I saw astronomical material of interest.

just full of himself. How could this be duplicated?
