Viking 1 landed on Mars in 1976. It was the first successful mission to land on the surface of Mars and provided valuable information about the planet's atmosphere and soil composition.
The year the first planet was landed on was 1976, when NASA's Viking 1 spacecraft successfully landed on Mars.
The two VIKING probes arrived in Mars orbit in 1976 when they started sending photographs back to Earth. The two orbiters continued sending photographs and the landers conducted experiments on the planet's surface until they failed as follows:Viking 2 Orbiter: July 1978 Viking 2 Lander: April 1980 Viking 1 Orbiter: August 1980 Viking 1 Lander: November 1982.
NASA first landed a spacecraft on Mars in 1976 with the Viking 1 lander.
The Viking 1 spacecraft landed on Mars in 1976, followed by Viking 2 also in the same year. These missions were the first to successfully land and send back images and data from the Martian surface, providing valuable insight into the planet's geology and atmosphere.

Viking 1 landed on Mars in 1976. It was the first successful mission to land on the surface of Mars and provided valuable information about the planet's atmosphere and soil composition.
The year the first planet was landed on was 1976, when NASA's Viking 1 spacecraft successfully landed on Mars.
Mars had a spacecraft land on it in 1976. NASA's Viking 1 lander successfully landed on Mars on July 20, 1976, followed by its companion, Viking 2, a few weeks later. This marked the first successful landing of a spacecraft on Mars.
It never landed on the moon. Viking II landed on Mars around August 6 1976.

No astronauts have landed on Mars as of 2021. The Viking 1 and Viking 2 landers, both robotic spacecraft, successfully landed on Mars in 1976.
Nothing of significance. Viking 1 and Viking 2 landed in 1976 and after that there were no Mars missions until 1988.
Viking 1 was launched on August 20, 1975, and the second craft, Viking 2, was launched on September 9, 1975. Viking 1 entered Mars orbit on June 19, 1976. The Viking 1 touched down on the surface of Mars on July 20, 1976, and was joined by the Viking 2 on September 3.
The Viking 1 spacecraft landed on Mars in 1976, followed by Viking 2 also in the same year. These missions were the first to successfully land and send back images and data from the Martian surface, providing valuable insight into the planet's geology and atmosphere.
The 1976 unmanned spacecraft that took pictures of Mars was called Viking 1. The Viking program consisted of two spacecraft, Viking 1 and Viking 2, which both successfully landed on Mars and sent back a wealth of images and data about the planet's surface. These missions provided important insights into Mars' geology, weather, and potential for past or present life.
