Uploader comment: This annotated image shows a bright feature interpreted as the United Kingdom's Beagle 2 Lander with solar arrays at least partially deployed on the surface of Mars.
Beagle 2 was released by the European Space Agency's Mars Express orbiter but never heard from after its expected December 25, 2003, landing.
