Firstly, the spacecraft missions to Mars are not termed 'satellites'. Most are sent to the surface (rovers or other robots) while other orbiters may orbit the planet for a period of time before moving on to explore elsewhere. An example would be Cassini, although this IS NOT a mars mission, it was actually sent to Saturn. I can't help you on the orbiter front, but an excellent resource for researching the surface missions is Google Mars. Here's the link - http://www.google.com/mars/
The first satellite to observe Mars in a flyby manner was Mariner 4, launched on the 28th of November 1964 and making a rendezvous with Mars on the 5th of December 1964. However the first probes to make a surface landing on mars were two soviet probes called Mars 2 and Mars 3, landing on the 27th of November 1971 and the 2nd of December 1971 respectively. These probes, however, fell out of contact shortly after landing. The first probe to successfully land and send back pictures were NASA's Viking 1 and Viking 2, landing in 1976 with the former remaining operational for six years and the latter for three.
The first satellite sent to Mars was Mariner 9, launched by NASA on May 30, 1971. It entered orbit around Mars on November 14, 1971, becoming the first spacecraft to orbit another planet.
In Roman mythology, Mars was the god of war and a symbol of strength and courage. He was also associated with agriculture and fertility. Mars was often depicted as a warrior, carrying a spear and shield, and was considered a protector of Rome.
The first settlers at Jamestown were English colonists sent by the Virginia Company of London. They arrived in 1607 and established the first permanent English settlement in North America.
In English, "god sent" means an act or thing perceived as having been originated by a divine agency.
The month of March is named after Mars, the ancient Roman god of war. He was also considered a guardian of agriculture and fertility.
A missionary is someone who is sent to do religious or charitable work in a foreign country.

the first spacecraft to explore mars is the mariner 4
Germany sent a team of people to Mars in 1937. But I think Russia was first to get there when they launched 60 gorillas to set up a base in Mars' jungles. That was in 1845 I think.
First ever satellite to land on the planet Mars was a Russian probe called Mars 2. Albeit it did not land but crashed. The first successful probe to land on Mars was Mars 3 sent by the Russians, however the probe was operational for 15 minutes after landing on Mars. The first American probe to land on Mars was the Viking 1 on the 20th of July 1976.
7 rovers have been sent to mars. The first one landed in 1971
mariner 7
no human has ever landed on mars however many many probes have been sent there
THEY WERE SENT TO MARS SO THAT WE CAN DISCOVER MANY NEW THINGS ON MARS!!!
The Mars 2, Prop-M rover, was sent in 1971 and was the first Mars Rover to be sent. Unfortunately the attempt was unsuccessful.The first successful Mars rover (and the third successful rover sent into space) was Sojourner. It was launched by NASA on December 4, 1996, and landed July 4, 1997. The most recent, successful, and currently operating Mars rover is the Opportunity (MER-B), Mars Exploration Rover, which landed successfully on January 25, 2004.So far there have been a total of five Mars Rovers.
No one has sent 15 rovers to Mars
The first martian rover was the Sojoner rover by NASA (US)
2004.
