Tracking Mars in Cyberspace

The Mars Pathfinder mission is charting new territory in outer space and cyberspace as well. The main JPL site is often overwhelmed, but there are a number of “mirror” sites available. New sites are being uploaded almost daily and a check of one of the search engines can give an up-to-date list. Here are a few sites, including the Los Angeles Times’ Web site, with information on Pathfinder.
