Key technologies of deep space TT&C and telecommunication for Mars exploration
The implementation of China's deep space telemetry, track and command (TT&C) system has always revolved around the three-step strategy of the lunar exploration project, including “circling”, “falling” and “returning”, which helps us to make great ...

Advancements in the gravity field and lithosphere structure of the Moon and Mars
The Moon and Mars are adjacent to Earth and are starting stations for human exploration of the Universe. An in-depth study of the lithospheric structure of the Moon and Mars can reveal the composition and structure of their crust and mantle systems and ...

Design of Earth-Mars transfer trajectories using evolutionary-branching technique
In this paper a novel global optimisation approach is used to search for potentially interesting solutions for a mission to Mars. The approach blends the characteristics of evolutionary algorithms with the systematic search, typical of branching 11 ...

Toward Sustainable Mars Exploration: A Perspective on Collaborative Intelligent Systems
Mars has long captivated the human imagination as a potential destination for settlement and scientific exploration. After deploying individual rovers, the next step in our journey to Mars is the autonomous exploration of the Red Planet using a ...

Planetary Exploration; Mars on the Scope
This article summarizes a practical case of introduction to research and planetary exploration through the analysis of data from the Rover Environmental Monitoring Station (REMS), one of the ten scientific instruments on board the Curiosity rover of the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL), currently operating at the impact crater Gale, on Mars.

Towards an integrated scientific and social case for human space exploration
I will argue that an ambitious programme of human space exploration, involving a return to the Moon, and eventually human missions to Mars, will add greatly to human knowledge. Gathering such knowledge is the primary aim of science, but science's compart-

Stringent Limits on H Emission from the Hot Jupiters WASP-80b and WASP-69b
Observations of auroras on exoplanets would provide numerous insights into planet–star systems, including potential detections of the planetary magnetic fields, constraints on host-star wind properties, and information on the thermal structures of ...

Small Mars Mission Architecture Study
While the vast majority of ESA’s funding for Mars exploration in the 2020s is planned to be invested in ExoMars and Mars Sample Return, there is an interest to assess the possibility of implementing a small mission to Mars in parallel with, or soon after,
