/TI	`NASA LAUNCH STARTS 10-YEAR EXPLORATION OF MARS {SUBHED} * 13 spaceships`
	`will test the planet's environment, and will also search for evidence of`
	`life.`

	`TEXT:`
/LP, /TX	`NASA kicked off an intensive search for evidence of life on other worlds`
	`Thursday by launching the first of 13 Earth-to-Mars spaceships scheduled`
	`during the next 10 years.`

	`After a one-day delay because of high winds, the Mars Global Surveyor`
	`blasted off from Florida's Kennedy Space Center at 50 seconds after noon,`
	`lugging six scientific instruments to explore the Martian environment.`

/TX	``It's the beginning of a long sequence of missions ultimately whose
	`goal must be to determine whether or not life was ever on Mars or even`
	`perhaps exists now,'' said Wesley Huntress Jr., chief of space science for`
	`the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.`

	`The unmanned missions - 10 American, two Russian and one Japanese - were`
	`planned long before the discovery that at least two Martian meteorites`
	`contain what may be relics of once-living organisms.`

	`A team of American scientists announced in August that they had found`
	`what looked like fossilized bacteria in a 4.5 billion-year-old Martian rock`
	`picked up in Antarctica. Just last week, British scientists who had`
	`examined a second meteor from Mars said they had found similar signs that`
	`life may have existed 600,000 years ago.`

	`The series of interplanetary voyages is supposed to culminate in 2005`
	`with the return of samples of Martian rocks and soil for detailed study.`

	`Scientists say they need such materials to confirm the highly uncertain`
	`evidence of tiny, bacterialike organisms found in Martian rocks that fell`
	`to Earth many years ago.`

	``We won't know for sure until we go to Mars and bring back samples,''
	`said David McKay, a NASA scientist who is studying the Martian meteorites.`
	`The Surveyor is to reach Mars next September after a looping journey of`
	`435 million miles that will take it half way around the Sun.`

	`Once there, it will spend six months settling into orbit, and then two`
	`Earth years (one Martian year) mapping the planet's enormous mountains,`
	`deep valleys and dried up river beds.`

	`At an average height of 234 miles above the Martian surface, the`
	`spaceship's cameras can detect objects as small as 6 feet across. They`
	`might photograph the two Viking landers that NASA abandoned there 21 years`
	`ago.`

	`The Surveyor won't be alone when it gets to its destination. Two more`
	`missions are ready to go in quick succession.`

	`* NASA PLANS to make its Martian data, including pictures and daily`
	`weather maps, available to the public on the Internet. It has created`
	`several home pages on the Internet offering information and pictures of the`
	`Mars missions:`

	`* Mars Global Survyor Homepage: http://mgs-www.jpl.nasa.gov/ (hyphen is`
	`correct)`
	`* Mars Pathfinder Homepage: http://mpfwww.jpl.nasa.gov/ (no hyphen is`
	`correct)`
