I have been trying to find, without success, to find a report about the first Mars Lander from the late 70�s early 80�s (it may have been as early as
72) of a report that came out from a NASA around then.
A spokesman who reportedly stated that the Lander had landed and all was going according to plan and that samples were being taken and analysed with a
lot of data being beamed back along with pictures, then a few days later it was reported that the radar had picked something coming up on the Lander
from behind, a shadow fell in view of the camera then it went off line and they were trying to re-establish contact with it since.
Around that time I remember that the headlines were on about life on MARS for quite awhile (about a week) then NASA changed there story and said that
there had been an electric malfunction and that they couldn�t get it back online and that was the end of it.
That�s the gist of the report that I remember but I�ve tried to find more anyone now anything about it (links would help)
