We've downloaded data from @ESA_EDM entry & descent #ExoMars - heatshield worked perfectly

ESA's Andrea Accomazzo: We already see that everything worked as planned up to a certain point #ExoMars

We need to understand what happened in the last few seconds before the landing - a lot to learn from this valuable test landing #ExoMars

Overflights by @NASAJPL's #MRO have not gotten any data from @ESA_EDM - more overflights are planned #ExoMars

Accomazzo: We also saw that the ground radar was activated and providing data to @ESA_EDM #ExoMars

Accomazzo: We expect @NASAJPL orbiters to attempt imaging the @ESA_EDM landing site in the coming days #ExoMars

Accomazzo: @ESA_EDM stopped transmitting on the order of ~50secs before the expected touch-down time #ExoMars

Parachute descent appears to have gone absolutely nominal #ExoMars

Accomazzo: Doppler data (recorded by #MarsExpress) does not correspond to the data reported by @ESA_EDM - we are analysing this #ExoMars

Accomazzo: We have all the data that @ESA_EDM transmitted #ExoMars

10:19 - Accomazzo: We did see rockets fire. #ExoMars

 

Jonathan Amos ‏@BBCAmos Oct 20

10:20 - Accomazzo: Time saw rockets firing was about three or four seconds. #ExoMars

 

Jonathan Amos ‏@BBCAmos Oct 20

10:21 - Accomazzo: Can definitely see the descent radar was on. #ExoMars

 

Jonathan Amos ‏@BBCAmos Oct 20

10:22 - Accomazzo: Plans to take pictures of landing site. This will be done by MRO. #ExoMars

 

Jonathan Amos ‏@BBCAmos Oct 20

10:24 - Accomazzo: Confirms loss of signal occurred 50 seconds before expected landing. #ExoMars

10:26 - Accomazzo: Speed at end of the parachute phase was off nominal. It could have been going faster than expected. #ExoMars

 

10:30 - Jonathan Amos ‏@BBCAmos Oct 20

McCoy: May have 4-10 days to work with, if Sciaparelli is still alive, before batteries die. #ExoMars

 

Jonathan Amos ‏@BBCAmos Oct 20

10:32 - McCoy: AMELIA team on Schiaparelli who want data on atmosphere have a good set of results. #ExoMars

 

Jonathan Amos ‏@BBCAmos Oct 20

10:47 - The telemetry says the retro-rockets did fire. This event lasts three or four seconds. #ExoMars

 

Jonathan Amos ‏@BBCAmos Oct 20

10:50 - ....communication with Schiaparelli is maintained for 19 seconds after the rockets are seen to shut off. Is the probe in freefall? #ExoMars

18:04 - Some of the EDM folks have stated that data relayed by MEX indicate DREAMS instrument suite startup. So yeah, it's gonna be a software issue

19:08 - . @NASA Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter has imaged changes on #Mars surface linked to #ExoMars @ESA_EDM http://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Space_Science/ExoMars/Mars_Reconnaissance_Orbiter_views_Schiaparelli_landing_site …pic.twitter.com/BD7XKhB1oO
