An interview with the Phoenix Mars Lander

A little shameless self-promotion... Part I of my interview with the Phoenix Mars Lander is up at my site now. No, you didn’t read that wrong. I didn’t interview any of the scientists or technicians involved with the Phoenix project, but went direct to the robot herself. Phoenix and I have been pals on Facebook for a while now and I thought it would only be natural to interview her about her thoughts and experiences as well as the important science she is doing some 170 million miles from home.

1. Did you try asking it to open the pod bay doors?

Just curious.

Have some decency man. :P

Part II has just been posted. This half of the interview we talk a little bit more in depth about some of the science Phoenix is doing on the red planet.
