NASA scientists will adjust Mariner 9 orbit around Mars to raise the lowest point from 862 to 1025 miles and lengthen each orbit by 1 minute 19 seconds to 11 hours 59 minutes 32 seconds. The move expands camera coverage and accounts for Mars gravity field uncertainties as dust storms clear slowly. Mapping will shift to two 20 day cycles with a possible third to fill gaps, delaying the main 70 percent surface map into February.
