Gentlefolk,

I read that If all goes well, about 4 hours after touchdown, Beagle 2 will send back a call sign composed by the rock band Blur.

The message will be sent via NASA’s Mars Odyssey orbiter, which should appear overhead in the Martian sky, on Christmas morning.

How about that for internationalizing the efforts? An example of extra-terrestrial Globalization perhaps?
