i don't understand... "...itia" red rectangle, when searching for the name "...1 Lander" red rectangle, the official GE location When I searched for the name (...itia) GE showed the lower right location but the place name was on the upper right location. I typed the name of the location in the search bar in GE. It didn't show the lander location. I guess because I didn't search for lander location.

{Answer} Chryse Planitia on Mars - Site of Viking 1 Landing in 1976 Viking 1 was launched on August 20, 1975, and arrived at Mars on June 19, 1976. The first month of its orbit was devoted to imaging the surface to find appropriate landing sites. On July 20, 1976, the Viking 1 lander separated from the orbiter, touched down on the Chryse Planitia region of Mars, and sent back the first close-up photographs of the rust-colored Martian surface.
