JPL Viking Lander (Viking 1) was first surviving Mars landed
payload, launched 20 Aug 75, landed Mars on 20 Jul 76, worked
for 6 years. Viking 2 launched 9 Sep 75, landed Mars 3 Sep 76
and functioned for 3 years. Big things for USA Bicentennial.
Also very expensive.
New Mars probes cost much less, do the same job, are more
mobile, have newer instruments. Proved balloon landing
concept was feasible with minimal cost compared to rocket
retrofire "soft" landing.
Nursie do work on either JPL program? No? Tsk. Either
Viking worked longer on Mars by remote control than nursie
did as purchasing agent at set-top box company. Difference
maybe that JPL had control of Vikings. No control possible
on nursie.
And you're STILL a putz. Now you're just a baby-babbling putz. I don't
know which was worse.
Tsk. More mean diss and cuss. Not nice.
Nursie tell all his mighty accomplishments in aerospace? All
want to hear? Must be important to "know" all those things he
tell.
I'd ask you to contribute something meaningful, but I know it will just
be
so laced with your ususal "I've got to show them I AM the superior intellect"
spitefulness that anything you DO manage to say will be lost in the hate and
the baby-babble.
I do REAL work on some space programs. Nursie do NONE.
Nursie never at JPL, Santa Su, Michoud, Cape, Clear Lake.
Nursie read "space comics" and be space guru? Must be.
Nursie spaced out. Tsk.
Nursie not talk about BPL or PLC. Tsk. Big spectre for all HF
communications in USA if Access BPL happen. Bye-bye HF
ham bands for DX. Too much noise in all HF receivers from BPL.
Nursie not say anything against BPL. Why that? Nursie want
BPL to happen in USA? If so, nursie HATE all other hams, want
to stop them from fun. Bad.
Nursie fruitcake. This not close to Christmas. Fruitcake not gift.
