RESULTS It launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida in November of In March of 1999, it’s mapping mission formally began. By the mid-2000s, the Surveyor had taken tens of thousands of high resolution pictures. It produced the first 3D pictures of Mars’s North Pole. It continued until November 14, 2006, when it finally lost contact. It provided evidence that water still flows in short bursts down hillside gullies on Mars. It identified deposits of water-related minerals, which helped astronomers and scientists select a landing site for a Mars Rover. It operated longer on Mars than any other spacecraft of it’s time. It discovered magnetic stripes about 160 km wide, which are most likely fragments of past magnetism.
