A lander can gather detailed, high-resolution data and conduct in-situ analyses of the planetary surface, including soil composition, atmospheric conditions, and geological features. It can perform experiments that require direct interaction with the environment, such as drilling or sample collection. In contrast, an orbiter is limited to remote sensing and cannot capture the same level of detail or conduct physical experiments on the surface.
