    Mars Global Surveyor was launched in November 1996 and has been
    in Mars orbit since September 1997. It began its primary
    mapping mission on March 8, 1999. Mars Global Surveyor is the
    first mission in a long-term program of Mars exploration known as
    the Mars Surveyor Program that is managed by JPL for NASA's Office
    of Space Science, Washington, DC. Malin Space Science Systems (MSSS)
    and the California Institute of Technology built the MOC
    using spare hardware from the Mars Observer mission. MSSS operates
    the camera from its facilities in San Diego, CA. The Jet Propulsion
    Laboratory's Mars Surveyor Operations Project operates the Mars Global
    Surveyor spacecraft with its industrial partner, Lockheed Martin
    Astronautics, from facilities in Pasadena, CA and Denver, CO.
