It should be on AVSIM listed as "Phoenix Mission v.4 Brian Jones 2182k 212 04-Jun-2008" which is an update from the version currently shown.

Great video! Where did you get the Phoenix lander add-on? Have searched orbithangar and the web...
Thanks,

On the night of the landing, I had a pretty startling dream.
I found myself with others who had just landed and were colonising the planet. We had not long landed and were exploring the planet.
I don't know if we had some kind of citidel to contain the air.
But it was not long before we, or at least I, started to feel strange as if something was in our bodies.
It gets better.
We all started getting cuts above our wrists shaped roughly like a curve and they were bleeding.
A bad omen.

This a simulation.

Dont be too amazed; when considering extremely large distances, it's a largely hit or/and miss affair (hence the name "phoenix as in this case). This type of feat is far more likely to fail than succeed (though it's alway' worth a try).

Was this the actual descent or an eleborate simulation?

the phoenix shit is on mars forever. All the rockets and technical means of rising from mars back to earth (if ever at all) are already spent during the descent on the martian surface. Therefore it is doomed to remain on mars (except perhaps somebody from earth goes to mars to retrieve it back to earth).

wow that would have been a difficult module to make, but you pulled it of, cool

I'll be forever amazed that men and women can shoot a probe into space, wait a few months or years, then have it SAFELY LAND exactly where they wanted it to be.
