- NASA's Phoenix mission is led by Peter Smith of the University of Arizona...
- Over the next several weeks, four survival heaters will be shut down, one at a time, in an effort to conserve power.
- As each heater is disabled, some of the instruments are also expected to cease operations.
- The energy saved is intended to power the lander's main camera and meteorological instruments until the very end of the mission.
- During that time, no commands will be sent to Phoenix, but daily downlinks from Phoenix will continue through NASA's Odyssey and Mars Reconnaissance orbiters.
