I think it was in 1976
The first probe to transmit from Mars was the Mariner 4 in 1965. It provided the first close-up images of the Martian surface back to Earth.
Mars only has about 28% the surface area of the Earth. What's interesting is that number matches the land area of Earth, so the total surface of Mars is roughly the same as the dry land surface of Earth.
Mars has 38% the pull of gravity than th Earth's.
Mars's gravity is 38% of Earth's.
The gravitational force exerted at the surface (and above the surface) of Mars is weaker than that here on Earth. The reason: Mars has less mass than earth.
An object on the surface of Mars weighs about 37% of its weight on the surface of earth.
the first spacecraft to explore mars is the mariner 4
Mariner 4 returned close-range images of Mars in July 1965. It was the first spacecraft to successfully fly by and image another planet. The images provided valuable information about the Martian surface.
100 pounds on earth surface = 37.8 pounds on mars surface Mass remains the same though.
Earth is about 1.88 times larger than Mars.
1991. Chuck Norris and Arnold Schwarzenegger Had an armwrestling fight.
The first spacecraft to visit Mars was Mariner 4. It was launched in 1964 and conducted a flyby of Mars in 1965, sending back the first close-up images of the planet's surface.
