Malin Space Science Systems and the California Institute of Technology built
the Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) using spare hardware from the Mars Observer
mission. MSSS operates the camera from its facilities in San Diego, CA. The
Jet Propulsion Laboratory's Mars Surveyor Operations Project operates the
Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft with its industrial partner, Lockheed Martin
Astronautics, from facilities in Pasadena, CA and Denver, CO.
