link Amusing anecdote: US media describes the Odyssey lander as being the size of a phone booth. UK media describes it as being the size of a TARDIS.  Come to think of it, younger types today will probably have a greater grasp of the exterior size of the latter than the former.

Unfortunately it landed on it's side. What would Super Man/Dr, Who do? |

Looks like one of the legs collapsed causing it to topple. |
