Mars Express and Venus Express Operations Extended

http://www.marstoday.com/news/viewpr.html?pid=22018

The decision to extend the Mars/Venus Express missions was unanimously made by the European Space Agency last friday. The decision was prompted by the amazing amount of scientific discoveries of the highest quality that have so far been made by these two express missions and the extension of the Mars Express and Venus Express operations will not only allow to complete the coverage carried out during the scientific phases that took place so far, but will also sustain the synergy that is being created in the interpretation of the data sets collected from both missions.
