摘要：
The Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft was launched on Nov. 6, 1996, and was captured into a highly elliptical, 45-h orbit around Mars with a 973 m/s propulsive maneuver on Sept, 12, 1997. A four-month aerobraking phase was supposed to remove another 1200 mis to circularize the orbit. Unfortunately, one of the two solar wings was damaged during deployment just after launch when the deployment damper failed. What has happened so far to achieve the original mission objectives is described, and the plans for the future of the Mars Global Surveyor Spacecraft are discussed.
