Image description

A Delta rocket launches the Mars Polar Lander and Deep Space II from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station January 3. The two spacecraft will reach Mars after an 11 month journey. The Mars Polar Lander will spend three months on the surface of Mars digging for traces of water and recording 10-second sound bytes of natural sounds from the planet. Deep Space II has two small microphones designed to penetrate the surface of Mars and collect samples for testing the water vapor content of the planet's subterranean soil.
