Mars surveyor 98 is part of NASA's Mar Surveyor Program, a scientifically aggressive but tightly cost-constrained program of robotic Mars exploration, with the goal of sending two spacecraft to Mars every two years form 1997 to 2006.
In December, 1998 and January 1999 NASA will launch two spacecraft to Mars as part of the overall Mars Exploration Program managed at JPL. One is an orbiter that will arrive at Mars in October of 1999 carrying a science payload for remote sensing.
This paper discusses the navigation flight experience for the Mars Pathfinder interplanetary cruise.
On July 4th, 1997, Mars Pathfinder became the third spacecraft to successfully land on the planet Mars. The mission's primary objective was to demonstrate a low-cost system for delivering a small science payload to the surface of Mars, and to test the operation of a rover.
The galileo spacecraft was launched on October 18, 1989 towards Jupiter using the Venus-Earth-Earth Gravity Assist (VEEGA) trajectory.
