Site of the Month for June 2003

The Launch of Beagle 2 finally puts British Space Research back on the front pages. For those who have been following the progress of this project may ponder the fact that instead of being a national effort, Beagle 2 was developed by a very small team, with little Government help and was effectively driven by one man's vision.
Compare this with the current NASA and Japanese Programs and one can only applaud the achievements of the Beagle Team.
