When the landing coordinates were programmed lightyears away on Earth, who could have guessed? I've always have wondered what might have happened if the Viking Mars landers had landed on the only life of Mars...

well, then the only life on mars would have been squished ;)

Or even better: What if the Viking made a photo of the mars showing all kinds of creatures and when they finally get people on mars they see it was all just an old interstellar wax-museum wich has been abandoned for millenia.

Shades of Kurt Vonnegut(sp?) - Slaughterhouse 5 was about something like that.

or was it the moons of Titan?

I really have no idea. I don't know the story.

Rayraz,
It was "The Sirens of Titan". Sorry about that I was very tired last night and it has been a long time since I read any Vonnegut. "Slaughterhouse Five" was about Dresden.

In "The Sirens of Titan" the main character is charmed by the reflection of what he judges to be the most beautiful girl in the world. Through deception he is coerced into trading consiousness with another being who lives near this girl - when he gets there by trading bodies through some transported like device, he finds that the girl is merely a statue and the person that he traded bodies with was a paraplegic prisoner being held for murder.

It just goes to show you that great minds seem to think
alike at times.

In case you're interested here's a link to Kurt Vonnegut
