The Phoenix Mars Lander has successfully landed on the Red Planet, surviving the ‘seven minutes of terror’ without a hitch.
That is a seriously cool piece of engineering work; congratulations to Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Lockheed Martin Space Systems, and the University of Arizona, Tucson!
At Fenway Park last night for Jon Lester’s no-hitter. He didn’t look great during the first three innings, but after that he seemed to just get stronger as the game went on.
Best seats I’ve had at Fenway – eight rows behind home plate. What a blast. I’ve never seen the park that full until the end of the game; good thing I scored parking on the westbound side of Beacon Street.
Also a good chance to play with the D300. Funny how most of my pictures actually have the Nikon sign in them!
