Anyone know the best way to watch live coverage of the Phoenix landing
on Mars?  Is NASA TV going to cover it are is there a website that would
be better?

Links to live coverage are on the home page.

Coverage begins about an hour before the landing at 6:53 CDT (when the
actual signal arrives on Earth)

Thanks for the link.  I'm wondering if they expect to see evidence of
surface ice at the time of landing or if that will have to wait until
the Martian Northern Hemisphere winter approaches.  Hope the landing
goes well, I'm looking forward to seeing a somewhat different looking
Martian landscape than what we've seen from Viking, Pathfinder, and the
MER rovers (not that the landing sites all look exactly alike, though
they are generally somewhat reminiscent of parts of the American desert
Southwest).

Keeping fingers crossed.

There is supposed to be landing coverage live on the Science Channel on
cable tomorrow afternoon as well as NasaTV on the web
