Exploration of planet Mars

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2019
In this paper we used an interdisciplinary approach to make students more interested in science, to increase and apply their knowledge, to better understand complex processes and phenomena and to connect different fields of science (physics, astronomy, astronautics, biology, geography, psychology, pedagogy, programming, etc.).

Exobiology and the Exploration of Mars–2

Applied Optics, 1969
Our limited understanding of the Martian environment has stimulated much speculation on the possible existence of a. Martin biota. This understanding is being steadily improved by ground-based observing techniques. Rapid advances have been made by the Mariner IV flyby and will be made by the Mariner 1969 flybys and the Mariner 1971 orbiters.

The Mars Exploration Program

Space technology and applications international forum (STAIF - 97), 1997
The Mars Exploration Program was initiated in 1994. It currently consists of a Discovery mission (Mars Pathfinder which will land in 1997) and the Mars Surveyor Program. The objectives of the Mars Surveyor Program are to launch 2 robotic missions every 26 months to address the three themes of Life, Climate, and Resources, with the focus of initial ...

Mathematics and Mars Exploration

Pure and Applied Geophysics, 2014
In this study we consider modelization associated with study of solar radiation at the surface of Mars and the Martian atmosphere. In particular, we present elements concerning retrieval of the solar irradiance spectrum on the surface of Mars from data collected by arrays of photodiodes, such as those onboard the “Curiosity” MSL-rover and other ...

Swarm exploration and navigation on mars

2013 International Conference on Localization and GNSS (ICL-GNSS), 2013
We propose autonomous robotic swarm exploration to search for extra-terrestrial life in the Valles Marineris canyon system on Mars. The swarm consists of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Key technologies are robust flight and swarm control algorithms as well as infrastructure-less swarm navigation.

Technology and Mars exploration

Space Programs and Technologies Conference, 1990
The currently envisioned technology needs of the Space Exploration Initiative are surveyed. Earth-to-orbit transportation technology requirements are summarized. Space transportation needs regarding aerobraking, space-based engines, autonomous landing, autonomous rendezvous and docking, vehicle structures and cryogenic tankage, artificial gravity ...

Human exploration of Mars

26th Aerospace Sciences Meeting, 1988
A systems study is underway of astronaut missions to Mars that could be accomplished over the next four decades. In addition to an emphasis on the transportation and facility infrastructure required for such missions, other relevant technologies and mission constraints are also being considered.

Mars exploration advances: Missions to Mars - Mars base

30th Aerospace Sciences Meeting and Exhibit, 1992
An overview is presented of Mars missions and related planning with attention given to four mission architectures in the light of significant limitations. Planned unpiloted missions are discussed including the Mars Orbital Mapping Mission, the Mars Rover Sample Return, the Mars Aeronomy Orbiter, and the Mars Environmental Survey.

Geologic exploration of Mars

Space Programs and Technologies Conference, 1990
The scientific objectives and methods involved in a geologic exploration of Mars from a manned outpost are discussed. The constraints on outpost activities imposed by the limited crew size, limited amount of time available for science, the limited diversity of scientific expertise, and the competition between scientific disciplines are addressed. Three

Rationale for Mars Exploration

Space 98, 1998
Mars, the fourth planet from the sun, has already been explored quite extensively. There have been seven missions to Mars since 1964. There are many incentives for humans to continue to explore Mars. The purpose of this paper is to provide a rationale for Mars exploration.
