Mars exploration advances: Missions to Mars - Mars base
30th Aerospace Sciences Meeting and Exhibit, 1992An 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.

31st Aerospace Sciences Meeting, 1993
Mars exploration planning is discussed which is based on three scientific objectives: to understand Mars' geologic and geophysical evolution; to understand the present state and past evolution of Martian climate, and to determine the state of present biological activity and past life.

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, 2014In 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 ...

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.).

Mars exploration rovers navigation results
The Journal of the Astronautical Sciences, 2004The twin Mars Exploration Rovers, Spirit and Opportunity, were launched on June 10, 2003(dagger), and July 8, 2003, from Cape Canaveral, Florida. Spirit and Opportunity were targeted for landings at Gusev Crater (arrival on January 4, 2004) and Meridiani Planum (arrival on January 25, 2004).

Space Programs and Technologies Conference, 1990
Several robotic exploration missions to Mars that are proposed for inclusion in the Space Exploration Mission are reviewed. The missions discussed range from remote sensing orbital missions to landed missions, such as simple surface stations and roving vehicles. The discussion covers engineering and science objectivess of the missions, data acquisition

Mars Exploration Rover mission
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2003In January 2004 the Mars Exploration Rover mission will land two rovers at two different landing sites that show possible evidence for past liquid‐water activity. The spacecraft design is based on the Mars Pathfinder configuration for cruise and entry, descent, and landing.
