NASA Provides Mars Global Surveyor Update

“NASA will hold a media teleconference at 1 p.m. EST, Tuesday, Nov. 21, to discuss the status and science accomplishments of the Mars Global Surveyor. The 10-year old spacecraft is the oldest of five NASA spacecraft currently active at the red planet.”

Editor’s note: “currently active”? That’s news. The last time I checked, NASA had been unable to communicate with the Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft for several weeks.
