26 December 2003
Between 23:20 and 00:40 CET on 25/26 December, the 76-metre radio telescope dish at the Jodrell Bank Observatory, UK, attempted to detect a signal from the Beagle 2 lander. No signal was detected.
On 26 December, NASA's Mars Odyssey orbiter will carry out another pass of the landing site at 19:14 CET. This will be followed up by another sweep by Jodrell Bank early on the morning of 27 December, between 00:20 and 01:00 CET.
While initial attempts to detect a signal from the tiny spacecraft have failed, further efforts are scheduled whenever possible during the next few days.
