Artwork of Mars Polar Lander on surface of Mars
Mars Polar Lander. Artwork of the Mars Polar Lander in the South Polar region of Mars. This probe was launched on 3rd January 1999. This lightweight spacecraft is designed to study the soil and weather on Mars. The lander will collect soil samples for analysis, which will be tested for water, providing clues about possible Martian life. It also has a camera which will be used to photograph the terrain. Data will be relayed through the black dish at upper centre. The probe is powered by its large solar panels (flat, either side of probe)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the Mars Polar Lander, a remarkable spacecraft that ventured to the South Polar region of Mars. Launched on January 3rd, 1999, this lightweight probe was specifically designed to unravel the mysteries hidden within Martian soil and weather patterns. With its primary objective being the collection of soil samples for analysis, scientists hoped to uncover valuable insights about water presence and potential signs of life on the red planet. The art print beautifully captures the lander's delicate landing on Mars' surface, highlighting its sleek design and advanced technology. Equipped with a high-resolution camera, it is poised to capture breathtaking images of the rugged Martian terrain. The data collected by this pioneering mission will be transmitted through the distinct black dish located at the upper center of the image. Powered by expansive solar panels positioned flatly on either side of its structure, this intrepid explorer relies solely on renewable energy sources during its journey across Mars. This visual masterpiece not only celebrates human ingenuity but also serves as a reminder of our relentless pursuit in understanding distant worlds beyond our own. Displayed proudly in any space enthusiast's collection or scientific institution alike, this awe-inspiring artwork from Science Photo Library encapsulates both artistic brilliance and scientific curiosity surrounding one of humanity's most ambitious interplanetary endeavors - exploring Mars with unwavering determination.
