The Mars Landing Space Technology Helps to Locate and Remove Deadly Landmines Covering the Earth

“This technology was the key component that contributed to the 2nd successful Mars landing with the Beagle II and will be used by TaeCorp in its Aerial Landmine System.”

Editor’s note: “2nd successful Mars landing with the Beagle II”? I am not sure how this could be true since Beagle II crashed – the first time. As such, I am not so certain that I’d trust this technology to clear landmines.
