The Phoenix has landed

Does everyone know about NASA TV?

The lander has been on the surface of Mars for slightly under 30 minutes as I type.

Update: Go over here to see a photo of the lander settling toward the Mars surface under its parachute.

Truly amazing.

....minus the 16-seconds (?) it takes for the signals to reach Earth.
