摘要: The location of the Viking 1 lander is most ideal for study soil properties because it has one footpad in soft material and on hard material. As each sample was acquired, information obtained. Although analysis still under way, early results bulk density, particle size, angle internal friction, cohesion, adhesion, penetration resistance Mars are presented.
