Just to be on the safe side, JPL control sent a series of four last-minute direct commands to back up the programmed instruction...
Computers on Earth digested the pictures, digit by digit, and "developed" them by translating the numerical values into the correct shades of light to be projected onto a photographic film. All told, Mariner was programmed to take and transmit up to 21 such pictures of Mars. But excited Mariner engineers could not wait for the first transmission to be completed before they sneaked their first look.
