[sci.space] Russian unmanned missions to Mars

     It's interesting to note, isn't it, that for all the Russian talk about
sending men to Mars, they have yet to send one successful mission to the 
planet.  I don't think that we'll be seeing any manned Soviet missions to the
red planet until they get their probes in order.  Curiously, they have good
enough luck with Venus, so it's not like they are completely deficient in 
sending probes beyond the moon's orbit.  Anyone believe in jinxes?
