science and technology 5 | 15.04.2003 (with neat picture of the exploration vehicle) Two rovers will be sent, mainly to examine “geological evidence of past liquid water activity and past environmental conditions hospitable to life.” [Press release with images of landing sites.] The first goes to the Gusev Crater, the second to the Meridian Planum. See image below for approxiate locations, both near the equator of Mars.
This image is a Meractor projection of Mars from latitudes 75°N to 75°S. To see a larger (unmarked) version of this image, and images of Mars’ poles, visit the MOLA 0.25° Global Topographic Model page. The Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA) Science Investigation is run by NASA, and its site has many fasinating images of Mars.
