Richard C. HoaglandBULLETIN:
I Will Be On "Coast," Again, Tonight -- First Hour... In News -- With An Update On Our Major "Mars Scoop" Of Last Night's "Coast."
Where I Nationally Broke The News That The Russians -- At 20:25 UT, November 22, 2011 -- Successfully (finally!) Made Radio Contact With Their "missing Phobos-Grunt" Mars Spacecraft (stranded In Low-Earth Orbit, Since It Mysteriously "went Silent," November 8th), And Are Now Receiving Engineering Telemetry For The First Time Since Launch!
I Will Be Highlighting Tonight The Russians Current, Frantic, "around-the-clock Efforts" To Now IDENTIFY "what Went Wrong" With Phobos-Grunt ~two Weeks Ago...upload A NEW Computer Program To "fix" Whatever Went Wrong... And Then, To Try To Once Again RESUME Their Planned Phobnos-Grunt Mission To The Inner Moon Of Mars, Phobos--
All Within The Next Few Days... Before The "Mars Launch Window" Permanently Closes!
To Add "competition" To The Mix, The Next NASA Unmanned Mars Mission, Of The Rover "Curiosity," Is Planned For Launch This Saturday Morning, November 26th, At 10:02 Am EST.
The "Mars Race" Has Begun....
