Description: Original NASA Viking Lander 2 (surface, 1976) Mars photographic image. Photograph is fine condition on high quality Kodak paper. 8" x 10". See photograph. Original Martian surface photograph from the NASA/JPL Laboratory and printed for research in the early 1980s on Mars surface processes. External assembly of Viking Lander 2 (lower right; fuzzy due to the camera focusing on the surface materials), large boulder, small sand dunes (around cobble at center of picture) and overall texture of Martian surface at the landing site - note the ejected canister from the Lander at the left edge of photograph. Thus, a one-of-a-kind photograph and not very common (most of these were destroyed at the end of the project).

If you want to see all of the Viking Lander 1 and 2 images taken on Mars, go to the URL: https://pds-geosciences.wustl.edu/missions/vlander/vlbrowser.html Use the image number to find them (make sure you pick either Lander 1 or Lander 2). Check out the other natural history, science, history, geology, and literature volumes I have listed. Still working through my collection and some hard-to-find or important volumes that you may need (or just want to read or look through). A good price. Downsizing my library and research collection to fit our new (smaller) house. Shipped with USPS Media Mail. Canada buyers inquire concerning shipping costs. Combined S/H for multiple items. I am not shipping the Mars Viking Lander Photographs to overseas - the S/H and the paperwork has contributed to avoiding these potential buyers (my apologies).
