Mars Pathfinder on Mars
The Mars Pathfinder mission helped people on Earth learn about the weather on Mars "up close" when it landed on the surface.
This is the first image showing clouds of Mars taken from the surface of Mars itself.
Mars Pathfinder found the weather on Mars to be variable. There were light winds both at night and during the day. Afternoon temperatures were steady. In the early afternoons, there were small dust storms.
While Mars Pathfinder was there, it never rained.
