The design, control, and reconstruction of the flight paths of all four Viking vehicles is presented. The specification of requirements on the flight hardware is described along with the navigation strategies, procedures, operational software, and the inflight navigation. Features of the Viking navigation discussed include the precise determination of the spacecraft trajectories, prediction of the trajectories, design of the propulsive maneuvers required to effect the necessary trajectory changes, and calculation of the Lander descent guidance parameters.
