Hi For what it's worth, in one of the NASA Channel Pathfinder Updates that were broadcast this past weekend I thought that they said that Pathfinder landed "12" miles from the coordiantes. As I recall it was part of a pretty interesting discussion about the decission not to make any last second course adjustments. If anyone really cares I'll take another look and get back to "ya' all" next week after I return from Louisianna.
