Martian soil tests advance with rover arm work
Project officials anticipate functional arm by Wednesday after removing a pin. Samples of Martian soil will be dropped into three hoppers for life-detection tests, with results not expected until the second week of August. The experiments aim to search for traces of life or evidence of past life, incubating samples for extended periods. Dr. Sagan calls the landing a fantastic cultural achievement and notes a working Mars weather station could influence TV weather summaries.
