  • July 1, 2020, Mars Surface: Hitching a ride on the Mars Pathfinder mission, the Sojourner rover arrived at the Red Planet on July 4, 1997. The mission was designed to demonstrate a low-cost method for delivering a set of science instruments to Mars, and served as the foundation for the Mars rovers of today. Pathfinder landed the rover using an air bag landing system and innovative petal design, which have been used since in various incarnations to land other rovers on the Red Planet. Sojourner spent 83 days of a planned seven-day mission exploring the Martian terrain, snapping photographs and taking chemical, atmospheric and other measurements.

  • President Richard M. Nixon and the Apollo 13 crew salute the U.S. flag during the post-mission ceremonies at Hickam Air Force Base, Hawaii. Earlier, astronauts John Swigert, Jim Lovell, and Fred W. Haise were presented the Presidential Medal of Freedom by the Chief Executive. Apollo 13, launched on April 11, 1970, was NASA s third crewed mission to the moon. Two days later, on April 13, while en route to the lunar surface, a fault in the electrical system of one of the Service Module s oxygen tanks produced an explosion that caused both oxygen tanks to fail and also led to a loss of electrical power. With the mission aborted, a dedicated team in the Apollo Mission Control Center devoted their efforts to developing a plan to shelter the crew in the lunar module as a lifeboat and retain sufficient resources to bring the spacecraft and its WAX2020041303 NASA

  • February 12, 2019 - Space - File - Robert Curbeam currently holds the record for the most spacewalks during a single spaceflight. In this image from December 2006, Curbeam works on the port overhead solar array wing on the International Space Station s P6 truss during Space Shuttle Discovery s STS-116 mission. This was the mission s fourth spacewalk. Curbeam conducted this spacewalk with European Space Agency astronaut Christer Fuglesang (out of frame), using specially prepared, tape-insulated tools, to guide the array wing neatly inside its blanket box during the 6-hour, 38-minute spacewalk.

Different regions were imaged at different times over the three Martian days to acquire consistent lighting and shadow conditions for all areas of the panorama. At left is a Lander petal and a metallic mast which is a portion of the low-gain antenna. Misregistration in the antenna and other Lander features is due to parallax in the extreme foreground. On the horizon the double Twin Peaks are visible, about 1-2 kilometers away. The rock Couch is the dark, curved rock at right of Twin Peaks.
