List of artificial objects on Mars

The following table is a partial list of artificial objects on the surface of Mars , consisting of spacecraft which were launched from Earth. Most are defunct after having served their purpose, but the Opportunity and Curiosity rovers and the InSight lander are still operational as of 2018. InSight is the most recent artificial object to land safely on Mars. The table does not include smaller objects, such as springs, fragments, parachutes and heat shields . As of November 5, 2016, there are about 14 spacecraft missions on the surface of Mars: some of these missions have multiple spacecraft.
