Synopsis
In 1997, NASA's Pathfinder began a new era in Mars exploration when it touched down and, along with its tiny rover, Sojourner, explored the Martian surface for the first time in 20 years. In December 1999, a new NASA spacecraft will land on Mars. Former astronaut Ride and science teacher O'Shaughnessy draw on Mars' data to present a comprehensive overview. Full-color illustrations, photos.
