The Viking Lander 1 site in Chryse Planitia is a barren desert with rocks strewn between sand dunes. The lander's footpad is visible at lower right; a trench in the foreground (just below center) was dug by the sampler arm. Patches of drift material and possibly bedrock are visible farther from the Lander.
