WHAT HAPPENED TO THE LANDER?
The lander crashed on december 3rd 1999. No further signals have been received from the lander. The cause of this loss of communication is unknown. Later, the scientists researched about how the lander crashed and came up with two results: one the lander's software malfunctioned, which made it mistakenly identify the vibration caused by the lander legs deployment as it landing on the ground, resulting in it cutting the power and having it fall 40 meters to the red martian surface.
