Scientific paper

The method used to pinpoint the location of the Viking 1 Lander is described. The higher resolution of pictures taken by the Viking Orbiter at a lower periapsis altitude facilitated the correlation of topographical features with the same features in the Lander pictures. The new areographic coordinates of the Lander are 22.483 deg N latitude and 47.968 deg W longitude.
