to bad there cant be an amateur radio payload even a really small one...this probe should be "longer lived" then most as it should have a constant energy source...

Wonder why the Europeans are thinking of sending Phase 5A to Mars?  It will probably never fly and almost no hams can be a part of that...so well why not send it to L2 in the Earth Moon systems...a halo orbit...
