Important Updates for Alliance Members NASA Teleconference Today about Status of Phoenix Mars Lander WASHINGTON -- NASA will hold a media teleconference at 4 p.m. EST today, Monday, Nov. 10, to discuss the status of the Phoenix Mars Lander. Phoenix has been operating on the Red Planet for more than five months. Participants will be: -- Barry Goldstein, Phoenix project manager at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. -- Peter Smith, Phoenix principal investigator at the University of Arizona in Tucson -- Doug McCuistion, director of the Mars Exploration Program at NASA Headquarters in Washington Audio of the teleconference will be streamed live at: http://www.nasa.gov/newsaudio *** FOR MUSEUM ALLIANCE MEMBERS: Two videos, suitable for public display and kiosks, will be available on the MUSE site later today after the news conference.
