In 1965 Mariner 4 sent back first close-up pictures of the Martian surface. Not only were there no canals, but Mariner 4 and the spacecraft that followed revealed a planet that was a cratered, lifeless desert. We have subsequently learned that Mars is home to Olympus Mons, the largest volcano in the entire solar system, and to a canyon system stretching for almost 3,000 miles around the Martian equator. The atmosphere is extremely thin (equivalent to that at 130,000 feet above Earth) and made up almost entirely of carbon dioxide. The surface is cold, almost never getting above freezing even at the summertime equator. Perhaps the greatest surprise were the photographs from Mariner 9 in 1971 and 1972 that showed channels on the surface. Now these were not Schiaparelli's canali there's, no way these channels could be seen by even the most powerfulearthbound telescope. They are unmistakable water courses, however. There is no water in them now, but they trace out the path of water that flowed in the past. They are like the dry river of the American West, through which water from rain flows, but which are dry most of the time. Water once ran on the surface of Mars. New explorations on Mars by the spacecraft Pathfinder, due to arrive on the planet's surface in 1997, are planned to give scientists more information about possible past life on Mars.
