Mars Odyssey 2002
Mars Odyssey has been in space for 15 years, and has been returning science data from Mars since February of 2002. It flies in a special 'sun-synchronous' orbit. It crosses the equator at roughly the same local time every day. Arrived at Mars: Oct. 24, 2001 Besides conducting its own scientific observations, the mission provides a communication relay for robots on the Martian surface. In December 2010, it surpassed the previous record for longevity of a robotic mission at Mars. Image of the Day. With more than 10 years in orbit and counting, the 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft has spent more time in orbit around the Red Planet, collecting data on Mars' climate and geology, than any other spacecraft in history. It also serves as a key communications relay for NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity.

- In Mars: Composition and surface pressure
The 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft confirmed that ice is present within a metre of the surface at latitudes higher than 60°, and the Phoenix lander found ice below the surface at 68° N, but it is not known how deep the ice layer extends. Images taken by…

Mars Odyssey safely entered Mars orbit in October 2001 and started mapping other properties, including the chemical composition of the surface, the distribution of near-surface ice, and the physical properties of near-surface materials. Neutron measurements suggested that the polar regions above latitude 60° contain huge…
