Design of Earth-Mars transfer trajectories using evolutionary-branching technique [PDF]
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 ...

A Low-Pressure, N2/CO2 Atmosphere Is Suitable for Cyanobacterium-Based Life-Support Systems on Mars
The leading space agencies aim for crewed missions to Mars in the coming decades. Among the associated challenges is the need to provide astronauts with life-support consumables and, for a Mars exploration program to be sustainable, most of those ...

The Absence of an Ocean and the Fate of Water all Over the Martian History
Existing data returned in >40 years of planetary missions to Mars provided a good basis to understand that an ocean never existed on the surface of the planet during its whole history.

Vision-based navigation and guidance for small Mars UAVs
Mars airplane is one of the candidate payloads of JAXA's next Mars exploration program. Airborne observation of Mars is expected to fill the “gap” between rovers, which provides a detailed observation but a limited area of coverage, and orbiters ...

Identifying and Interpreting Stratification in Sedimentary Rocks on Mars: Insight from Rover and Orbital Observations and Terrestrial Field Analogs [PDF]
Sedimentary rocks on Mars provide insight into past aqueous and atmospheric processes, climate regimes, and potential habitability. The stratigraphic architecture of sedimentary rocks on Mars is similar to that of Earth, indicating that the processes ...
