Years Later...
This image, taken recently by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, shows the Pathfinder lander on the surface of Mars. Zooming in, one can discern the ramps, science deck and portions of the airbags on the Pathfinder lander. The back shell and parachute are to the south, and four features that may be portions of the heat shield are identified.
