[edit] Failures and cancelled missions
I've removed these from this template, since i don't think it is the place for them. This was intended to group together spacecraft that have actually reached Mars.. a listing of failed attempts and some cancelled missions is in Exploration of Mars. Mlm42 12:30, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

- I've created a new template for these; {{Failed Mars Missions}}: -GW_Simulations|User Page | Talk | Contribs | E-mail 22:34, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
| Failed & Cancelled missions to the Planet Mars | |
|---|---|
| Failed: | Marsnik program | Sputnik 22 | Mars 1 | Sputnik 24 | Mariner 3 | Zond 2 | Mars 1969A | Mars 1969B | Mariner 8 | Cosmos 419 | Mars 6 | Mars 7 | Phobos 1 | Mars Observer | Mars 96 | Nozomi | Mars Climate Orbiter | Mars Polar Lander | Deep Space 2 | Beagle 2 |
| Cancelled: | Voyager | Mars Surveyor 2001 Lander | NetLander | Mars Telecommunications Orbiter |
[edit] Beagle 2
Rillian added the Beagle 2 back... I just removed it because
- The template isn't used in the Beagle 2 article
- The "Failed Mars Missions" template is
- It's still included in that template as well.
It did reach the planet, but did not complete any of its objectives. There is no conclusive evidence of a controlled landing, placing it in the same ballpark as Mars Polar Lander–is my opinion. Potatoswatter 10:21, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Mars Express <> NASA probe
i would either remove NASA from the first line or Mars Express from the list. i think the first option is better since it would allow to include even ExoMars or Phobos-Grunt into the table ... --PowerCS 11:19, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
