Hello Horton>>>

Just saw your 44. Looks like phoenix took a jump on its landing. Its not all smooth surface here, lots of little rocks and somewhat larger ones strewn around the site. I think that rock was hit by one of the pads on landing. At 5MPH, low gravity and resistance could cause Phoenix to hop on first contact. Do you see any suggestions to that idea under the Lander? Say a double pad hit near that rock.
