Dear Wiki Questioner,
The first spacecraft that visited the planet Mars was the "Mariner 4". It was launched by NASA in 1964 and simply flew past Mars, taking pictures and gathering information as it passed!
The first spacecraft to LAND ON Mars were the "Mars 2" and "Mars 3" probes launched by the USSR in 1971. Unfortunately, both of these probes stopped functioning not long after landing on Mars.
NASA's "Viking 1" lander was the first spacecraft to land on Mars and function for an extended period of time (6 years in fact).

∙ 15y agoThe first probes to impact and land on Mars were the Soviet Union's Mars 2 and Mars 3, as part of the Mars probe program M-71 in 1971. The Mars 2 and 3 probes each carried a lander, both of which failed upon landing. Mars 3 was the first successful martian lander and was able to send data and image from the surface of Mars for the first time during 20 seconds of operation.

Viking 1 was the first of two spacecraft sent to Mars as part of NASA's viking-spacecraft. It was the first spacecraft to successfully land on Mars and perform its mission, and holds the record for the longest Mars surface mission of 6 years and 116 days (from landing until surface mission termination, Earth time).
