Desert testing of NASA's Viking probe equipment, 1970s. Footage of NASA planetary scientists in a desert, testing equipment to be used on the Viking space probes sent to Mars. The surface of Mars is arid and desert-like, hence the instruments being tested under these conditions. Viking 1 and Viking 2 launched in 1975 and entered orbit in 1976. Each orbiter also deployed a lander, both of which successfully reached the surface, sending back extensive imagery and data from their instruments. | |
