Hazard Evaluation for the Mars Pathfinder Prime Landing Site from Synthesis of Radar Ranging and Continuous Wave Observations during the 1995 Mars OppositionDuring the 1995 Mars opposition, Earth-based radars had a favorable angle for viewing many of the possible landing sites for Mars Pathfinder. The Goldstone 70-m antenna was used at X-band (3.5 cm) to get a measure of roughness to nearly that size.
