This animation of the NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander's telltale was made from
five images taken by Phoenix's Stereo Surface Imager (SSI) just after 1:10
PM local Mars time on the eighth Martian day of the mission, or Sol 8
(June 2, 2008). The images were taken with a blue filter (450 nanometer,
R6) that focuses at items on the deck rather than the workspace or
horizon.
The Phoenix Mission is led by the University of Arizona, Tucson, on behalf
of NASA. Project management of the mission is by NASA's Jet Propulsion
Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. Spacecraft development is by Lockheed Martin
Space Systems, Denver.
