Life on Mars [PDF]

open access: possibleOrigins of life and evolution of the biosphere, 1993
Although the Viking results may indicate that Mars has no life today, the possibility exists that Mars may hold the best record of the events that led to the origin of life. There is direct geomorphological evidence that in the past Mars had large amounts of liquid water on its surface.

Mars Climate Sounder Observation of Mars' 2018 Global Dust Storm

Geophysical Research Letters, 2020
The largest of dust storms on Mars are global dust events (GDEs) that affect essentially every aspect of the Martian atmosphere but do not occur in every Mars year.

Hydrogen escape from Mars is driven by seasonal and dust storm transport of water

Science, 2020
Dust storms cause Mars to lose water Mars was once a wet planet, but it has lost most of its water through reactions that produce hydrogen, which escapes from the upper atmosphere into space. Stone et al.

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.

Microorganisms on Mars

Science, 1967
The article which Bond's committee objects to is an examination of the basic assumptions of the current spacecraft sterilization policy in the light of new knowledge of the planet Mars. It shows that the validity of these assumptions is, at the very least, questionable.

Organics on Mars?

Astrobiology, 2010
Organics are expected to exist on Mars based on meteorite infall, in situ production, and any possible biological sources. Yet they have not been detected on the martian surface; are they there, or are we not capable enough to detect them? The Viking gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer did not detect organics in the headspace of heated soil samples ...

Mars X: A Mars Mission Architecture with Lunar-Mars Synergy

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2006
A human mission to Mars, if it is to be cost effective, should take maximum advantage of previous efforts at the Moon, in terms of habitats, heavy lift boosters, and vehicles. It must also make use of nuclear site power for bases. However, to make such an effort sustainable over many administrations, it should not make use of nuclear propulsion.

Polarimetry of Mars

Applied Optics, 1969
A summary of results of observations of the polarization of Mars shows that surface pressure determinations from these data have not yielded satisfactory results in spite of the extensive number of observations available. It is suggested that the difficulty lies mainly in the neglect of radiative components resulting from a combination of diffuse ...
