Scientific paper

We propose a series of Mars observations to directly support the Mars Pathfinder mission. These observations will be partially coordinated with the programs of D. Crisp and P. James. We propose an observation of Mars near opposition, one month prior to landing, and during the landed phase of the Pathfinder mission. Our primary goals are to: 1} develop a geologic map to place Pathfinder surface observations in a regional context, 2} provide atmospheric measurements prior to landing to support any last-minute course corrections, and 3} provide atmospheric and surface measurements concurrently with Pathfinder atmospheric and surface measurements to gain better understanding of the atmosphere and its effect on observations of the surface.
