COSMIC MESSAGE
Mars rock Yogi and the Sojourner robot are featured in this color image from the Pathfinder mission. Yogi's two-toned surface suggests its color contrast might be from rust-colored dust accumulating on its windward face. The Pathfinder lander, renamed the Sagan Memorial Station, and its Sojourner rover explored the Martian surface, sending back valuable data and images.
