Show 4 The Salt Lake Tribune, Saturday, September Ih Date Gerard 18, 1976 Aboard Viking 2 Command May Activate Jammed Soil Scoop Peter J Boyer Associated Press Writer Calif Scientists PASADENA, of carbon atoms essential to life as we know it, took on added significance as baffling early data from Viking 2 s biology instruments began pouring in By Friday that a direct command to 2s jammed scooping arm would complete a delivery of Martian soil to a laboratory aboard the lander The arm got stuck in mid delivery last Fanday, and a handful of Martian soil bound for an y analysis was never delivered Scientists guessed that a faulty switch caused the malfunction, and they bypassed the switch by making a direct command for the arm to proceed with its rounds. Scientists wont know until Saturday whether the arm is working again The y laboratory will analyze the tiny rocks and identify chemical elements contained in them. Misses Experiment The most important probe that mis sed out on its regimen of soil was the The organic chemistry experiment experiment, considered most crucial to the question of life on Mars, was to get its sample on Sunday, but that dig was canceled Scientists wanted time to look ior an area within the landers reach that was as dissimilar from the soil probed by Viking 1 as possible, since the first lander failed to turn up any organics The earlier choice was a spot that "seemed so much like what was picked up by Viking 1, said Viking spokesman. Maurice Parker It was not known when the Viking 2 robot would reach out for a soil sample to make its delivery to the organic (henustry experiment The search for orgames, tiny chains hoDed Indicated Life Viking Somebody ought to tell her a dress that short is clear out of style now!
