Just a short while ago, I downloaded/installed Rob Sander's "Ice Mars" piece. I wonder if it would be possible to land Viking or some of the other Mars Probes on this Mars Image
instead of the Mars we know in real life. Later!

Celestia doesn't care. If you have the Rover Addon installed, and if the appropriate radius is used for Mars, then it should be on the surface of this Mars, too.

Nope, I was talking about landing Viking on an icy Mars. I did that, BTW, and it was really cool! Later!
