Computer malfunction halts Mariner 9 experiments
In Pasadena California scientists probe a computer and sequencing failure on Mariner 9 in Mars orbit that forced a two month shutdown of photographic and other experiments. The center concern is the danger to sensors and camera if the computer jams the movable scanner while the craft hinges on battery power during shadowed solar periods. Experts hope the fault does not prevent pointing the high gain antenna in June when systems restart, with signals now taking about 30 minutes round trip.
