Description
Pathfinder on Mars, 1997
Chromogenic print from a digitally retrieved image (76/100)
Stamps on verso, "The Mars Edition Center for Creative Photography, 76 of 100 / Pathfinder on Mars September 29, 1997"

Shortly after this image was retrieved, Earth stopped receiving communications from Pathfinder, which had landed on Mars on July 4, 1997. “Pathfinder fell silent on Sept. 27, after nearly three months of sending back information.... Scientists speculate that communications were severed by a burned-out battery, by cold affecting the spacecraft’s communications equipment or by a computer problem (Agence France-Presse, Nov. 3, 1997).
