wide that the chance for a 200th
birthday present on Mars is
somewhat shaky. In any case,
scientists will not risk the suc-
cess of the mission simply so
the soding will coincide with a
holiday.
Viking 2's flight path should
take it to Mars orbit around
August 7, with its Lander sched-
uled for a touchdown about a
month later.
T h e scientific experiments
aboard the Vikings-13 on each
-seem lackluster to the casual
observer, but earth-bound bio-
logists, chemists, astrophysicists.
and others hope one or more of
the investigations will discover
a sign of life-perhaps only a
microbe-and thereby lend sup-
port to the belief that the uni-

verse may be teeming with life.
OF MOST interest, at least
initially, to the common man
will probably be the television
pictures each Orbiter will beam
b a c k to earth. While the
cameras will not, of course, ever
focus on ruins of some long-
dead Martian civilization or a
green-skinned w h a t z i s, the
planet's terrain is hardly de-
void of features.
Beyond the pretty pictures,
however, the Landers' instru-
ments will dig into the Martian
surface for soil samples, then
subject them to three different
types of analysis-any of which
may turn up a particle of life,
The space agency has been
careful to sterlize each Viking
spacecraft in order to avoid
contamination.

'Lady Fingers': New cafe

chairs and think it's an ice
cream parlor, until they see
the menu," she added, laugh-
ing. "Then sometimes they
stay away. Many people like
the atmosphere, and it's all
good-quality food, instead of
the usual food - chain type
stuff."

ONE CUSTOMER, a young
man named Harvey, agreed. "I
was just looking for something
light for dinner, so I came in
here. I like it an awful lot-
it gets away from the tradition
of the hamburger." He added,
"I like sitting in a place
where there are lots of win-
doae so I canrwatch the peo-
ple going by."
Harvey expressed his disap-
pointment with the fact that
Lady Fingers closes so early,
and also that they stop serv-
ing sandwiches at 5:00 p.m.
"I thought it would be a good
place to have something to eat
later on in the night," he said.
Other customers complained
that the cafe is a little noisy
because of a string of bells that
rings every time that some-
one comes in, which they claim
interrupts conversation.
"But the cheese was good
and the plants are terrific,"
added one customer - critic.

Other experiments will take
a look at the weather on Mars,
measuring temperatures, pres-
sure, wind speed and direction
(the first direct meterological
investigations on a n o t h e r
planet); check for Marsquakes;
measure the planet's gravita-
tional field; look for water; and,
generally, try to piece together
the history of the planet through
its present characteristics.
THE VIKING program is dif-
ficult. The USSR has tried at
least three times to land on
Mars; all attempts failed. Foul
weather (Mars experiences oc-
casional dust storms) could
damage some of the probes'
scientific instruments.
The search for life on Mars is
also very expensive. Viking car-
ries a price tag of nearly $1
billion, enough to finance two
manned missions to the moon
or four missions similar to the
recent Apollo-Soyuz Test Pro-
ject. But, as astronomer Carl
Sagan writes in the journal
"Sky and Telescope": "If it
works, it promises to revolu-
tionize the planetary sciences
in general and the study of Mars
in particular."
And Viking, in faict, is only
among the first stages of a am-
bitious unmanned planetary pro-
gram the United States and the
Soviet Union are both actively
pursuing. Beyond the Viking
program lie more missions to
Venus, Mercury, and Jupiter
and flybys o v e r the outer
planets.
In planetary space explora-
tion, this is the year 1491.
