Phoenix Mars Lander Site Hacked

As of 1217 PST, Phoenix Lander website is down, and AP reports the website was redirected to an un-named 'overseas website'.

In another story, it is reported the lander has an 'electrical short'.

Where was it redirected? Why? And by whom?

I did not noticed anything, it was working before, it is working now.

But I don't think I saw it at that time, what time is that when translated to Universal Time?

The sight is up and what I have realized that NASA does not want us to to see many of these Phoenix Lander photos because I feel most are blurry intensionally, folks these tiny tiny humanoid lifeforms are spectacular and many are absolutely beautiful and some are very weird indeed.

NASA knows there are too many of us out here now that have their number and can see these lifeforms and anomalies the gig is up. Look for this to be a very short mission and very few photos to be in focus. Yes I understand the mission is intended to last 90 days and if some miracle happens and NASA comes clean about life existing on Mars it would be finally one giant leap for mankind. Rik Riley

I did not visit the site in that time frame, so I was unaware of any problems.

They must have corrected the situation before I had a chance to see it.
