BEAGLE 2: A spacecraft missing for over a decade has been discovered on Mars. The UK-led mission ended in disappointment when contact was lost with the Beagle 2 lander after it was deployed from the Mars Express spacecraft on December 19, 2003. However, through analysis of high-resolution imagery, scientists were confident enough that they had located Beagle 2 to make an announcement on January 16. #Beagle2 #Mars This image is embeddable: ESA - European Space Agency via Facebook (Photo credit: University of Leicester/Beagle 2/NASA/JPL/University of Arizona) Contact ESA - European Space Agency via Facebook for other usage requests
