Answer:
The correct answer is A. The Mars Climate Orbiter crashed on the surface of Mars because one program output thrust in terms of foot-pounds, and another program expected thrust to be expressed in terms of newtons.
Explanation:
The Mars Climate Orbiter was NASA’s unsuccessful mission to study the Martian climate, part of the Mars Surveyor 98 program. The MCO was created as a satellite-translator for the Mars Polar Lander lander, and after the latter ceased to function, it was supposed to study the Martian climate.
The Mars Climate Orbiter was destroyed when a navigation error caused the probe to be improperly elevated as it entered orbit. The vehicle was destroyed by the friction and stresses in Mars' atmosphere. An investigation showed that some data for the rocket system were calculated in English units (pound-force-second) while the navigation team expected SI units (Newton-second).
