mars pathfinder and its small, six-wheeled Sojourner rover touched down on Mars on July 4, 1997. For almost three months, the lander beamed back billions of bits of data, including tens of thousands of images, before it fell silent. The science gathered by The DLR route map shows a real topographic view of Watney’s initial journey back and forth from the fictional Ares 3 landing site to the actual landing site of NASA’s 1997 mars pathfinder lander and Sojourner rover mission at the mouth of Ares Vallis. Luckily, Watney knows his NASA history — so he locates and digs up mars pathfinder, a spacecraft NASA actually launched back in 1996. After a little tweaking, he uses the robot to communicate with engineers through a replica of Pathfinder at NASA's Jet an IIT-Kharagpur alumnus who was the only Asian on the NASA's Mars Pathfinder Mission, said at a meet-the-press programme at the Mumbai Press Club. If the water is too deep below the surface then it would not be cheap to recover it, so it would be little Amitabh Ghosh, a scientist that worked on the Mars Pathfinder mission says that just because there is water on Mars doesn’t mean that we can actually use it. “Among the things that need to be considered are the quality of the liquid water there — or built and operated the Mars Pathfinder lander and its Sojourner rover, which landed on Mars in 1997 and operated for about three months. The hardy Pathfinder probe figures prominently into Watney's ability to communicate with Earth and survive his long ordeal. .
