This is an alphabetical list of named rocks (and meteorites) found on Mars, by mission. This list does ''not'' include Martian meteorites found on Earth. Names for Mars rocks are largely unofficial designations used for ease of discussion purposes, as the International Astronomical Union's official Martian naming system declares that objects smaller than are not to be given official names. Because of this some less significant rocks seen in photos returned by Mars rovers have been named more than once, and others have even had their names changed later due to conflicts or even matters of opinion. Often rocks are named after the children or family members of astronauts or NASA employees. The name "Jazzy", for example, was taken from a girl named "Jazzy" who grew up in Grand Junction, CO, USA. Her father worked for NASA and contributed to the findings and naming of the rocks. == 1976 – Viking program: ''Viking 1'' and ''Viking 2'' landers == ''Viking 1'' Lander – July 20, 1976; ''Last Earth Contact'' – November 13, 1982.
