Some data was reported in Imperial units instead of the usual metric units. Because of this, the orbiter went down to an altitude of 57 km above Mars instead of 140-150 km. It was destroyed by the atmosphere as it was not designed for atmospheric flight.

The Mars satellite that crashed on Mars was the Mars Climate Orbiter. It crashed in 1999 due to a navigational error caused by a mix-up of imperial and metric unit systems during the spacecraft's mission.

The two missions to Mars that ended in failure are the Mars Climate Orbiter in 1999, which crashed due to a navigation error, and the Mars Polar Lander in 1999, which likely crashed during its descent.

There have been 5 rovers sent to Mars:
Mars 2 Prop-M rover was launched by a Proton K Rocket and carried by the orbiter.
Mars 3 Prop-M rover was launched by a Tyazheliy Sputnik Rocket and carried by the orbiter.
Sojourner rover was launched by a Delta II rocket and carried by the Pathfinder Orbiter
Spirit Rover was launched by a Delta II rocket and carried by its orbiter.
Opportunity was launched by a Delta II rocket and carried by its orbiter.

1 answer
The Mars Climate Orbiter disaster occurred in 1999 when the spacecraft entered the Martian atmosphere at too low of an altitude and disintegrated. The cause of the failure was attributed to a miscalculation of forces due to a mix-up in unit conversion. Lockheed Martin, who built the spacecraft, used imperial units while NASA used metric units, leading to the misalignment of navigation data.

Yes, NASA has sent several spacecraft to Mars, including the Mars rovers (e.g. Curiosity, Perseverance) and orbiters (e.g. Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, MAVEN). These missions have helped study the geology, climate, and potential for past life on Mars.

Ice has been found on Mars multiple times through observations made by spacecraft, such as the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and the Mars Phoenix Lander. The first confirmed discovery of ice on Mars was in 2002 using data collected by NASA's Odyssey orbiter. Additionally, scientists have also found glaciers, ice caps, and frost on the surface of Mars.

The Viking 1 and Viking 2 missions consisted of both an orbiter and a lander. The landers successfully touched down on the surface of Mars, while the orbiters remained in Mars' orbit to relay communications and data between the landers and Earth.

None, since satellites don't "land", they orbit. There are 6 landers and rovers on the Martian surface, 2 of which were lost at arrival. NASA reports 3 types of Martian Exploration missions: (1) Fly-by missions: Mariner 3, Mariner 4, Mariner 6, Mariner 7 (2) Orbiter missions (the satellites): Mariner 8, Mariner 9, Viking 1, Viking 2, Mars Observer, Mars Global Surveyor, Mars Climate Orbiter, 2001 Mars Odyssey, Mars Express, Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (3) Lander and Rover missions: Viking 1 Lander, Viking 2 Lander, Pathfinder Rover, Polar Lander (lost), Deep Space 2 (lost), Spirit Rover, Opportunity Rover, Phoenix Mars Science Laboratory Rover is scheduled to launch in 2011.

So far, no one has identified any major errors that were the results of faulty measurement.
Two common misconceptions are actually errors of a different sort -- the Mars Climate Orbiter and the Hubble Space Telescope.

The Hubble telescope was placed in orbit with a mirror that had been ground to the wrong dimensions. A fleck of paint was stuck to the end of an optical interferometer and used as a reference datum.

On September 23, 1999, NASA's Mars Climate Orbiter was unintentionally destroyed.
The spacecraft was launched on December 11, 1998. A minor calculation error had it enter the orbital pattern of Mars at an altitude that was lower than expected. It disintegrated due to atmospheric stress when it entered at this incorrect position.

Chaos would ensue. If your recipe asked for 2 kg of potatoes and a kg today was the mass of a feather, you would have rather a hungry family. When NASA scientists confused measures, they ended up with the disasters that was the Mars Climate Orbiter - the most expensive piece of scrap metal that NASA sent to Mars.

The generic data rate to the Odyssey orbiter is 128-256Kbps. Data rates direct to Earth varies between about 500 and up to 32000 bits per second. Speed to the Mars Reconaissance Orbiter can be as high as 2Mbps.
The signal speed is 3×108 ms-1.

NASA have sent many satellites and probes and landers to Mars and beyond. You need to be a bit more specific with your question. But I am sure a Google search (which I am not going to do for you) will turn up a complete list. The name of the satellite was Behemoth (MRO) Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. It was launched in 2005 to begin its 6 month journey to mars.a sattelite is also known as what people use as a tv reception they get that reception from space which carries a huge sattelite
