Launch was from Baikonur, Kazakhstan on June 2, 2003; arrival at Mars was on December 25, 2003.
New approaches to modelling spacecraft system are being tested at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in order to better understand and quantify the interactions among spacecraft subsystems and mission varibles and thereby understand and manage mission risk.
