QUESTION:
How many G's did you experence going up in space and how do you cope with it?

ANSWER from Guy Beutelschies on March 27, 1997:
Both Mars Global Surveyor and Mars Pathfinder are unmanned.  The
spacecraft, however, did experience 9 G's during launch.  We knew about
this ahead of time so we designed the structure to withstand it.
