Abstract

This report covers the relatively quiet Viking On Board Science & Telemetry period from November 15, 1976, through December 31, 1976, when Mars and the Viking spacecraft were in the Solar conjunction period. The period therefore presented the Viking Radio Science Team with a unique opportunity to utilize the DSN and Viking spacecraft to exercise their experiments with nonstandard station configurations, without the usual command and telemetry constraints.
