Who knows, Ziroc. Maybe Beagle 2 landed near a Martian village and was captured by ugly evil aliens [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img] ????

Why send color (which takes more bandwidth) when everything is different shades of red? If you want a true color image just take the black and white and add some red to the picture. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Actually, they stated that they should be getting color pictures within a few days. Of course, since everything is red, it won't be that terribly exciting. However, it would still be cool to have a picture that shows exactly what Mars looks like on the surface, in full color.

I think maybe they did the same thing with the Beagle 2 that they did with that other probe that crashed (did their math wrong). Or maybe it was laser beams from the eyes of that monkey-faced looking area on the surface...
