Viking Lander spacecraft battery. Final report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:7219012
The Viking Lander was the first spacecraft to fly a sterilized nickel--cadmium battery on a mission to explore the surface of a planet. The significant results of the battery development program from its inception through the design, manufacture, and test of the flight batteries which were flown on the two Lander spacecraft are documented. The flight performance during the early phase of the mission is also presented.
