Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is important for detecting shallow subsurface structures, which has been successfully used on the Earth, Moon, and Mars. It is difficult to analyze the underground permittivity from GPR data because its observation system ...

The WISDOM Radar: Unveiling the Subsurface Beneath the ExoMars Rover and Identifying the Best Locations for Drilling [PDF]
, 2017 The search for evidence of past or present life on Mars is the principal objective of the 2020 ESA-Roscosmos ExoMars Rover mission. If such evidence is to be found anywhere, it will most likely be in the subsurface, where organic molecules are shielded ...

A rocky hill on the continuous ejecta of Ziwei crater revealed by the Chang’e-3 mission
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2020 The Chinese Chang'e-3 mission landed close to the eastern rim of the ~450 m diameter Ziwei crater. Regional stratigraphy of the landing site and impact excavation model suggest that the bulk continuous ejecta deposits of the Ziwei crater are composed by ...
