(ARES VALLIS, MARS) In the predawn darkness of July 4th, the red planet gained
two new inhabitants: NASAs Mars Pathfinder and its six-wheeled companion, Sojourner (seen here before deployment). A week after
bouncing onto this ancient, boulder-strewn floodplain, the lander and rover had surveyed the surroundings with stereo cameras, radioed
weather conditions, and sampled rock and soil chemistry. Pathfinders first results will appear in next months issue. Courtesy NASA/JPL.
