Improving the Accuracy of the Martian Ephemeris Short-Term Prediction

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, 2018
The Chinese Mars exploration mission is planned to be launched in 2020, which includes an orbiter, a lander, and a rover. High precision Martian ephemeris is very important in Mars exploration, especially for the Martian orbit insertion and the Martian ...

Investigating the Impact of the Spatially Heterogeneous Surface Dust Cover on Martian Global Dust Event Occurrence

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The observed inter‐annual variability of Global Dust Events (GDE) occurrence on Mars remains challenging to understand and therefore to predict. Several hypotheses have been investigated so far, but a central aspect seems to be missing: How the heterogeneity of the surface dust cover and regolith particle size distributions relate to regional ...

An astrobiological study of high latitude martian analogue environments

open access: yes, 2010
The search for life on Mars is in part reliant on the understanding of Martian environments, both past and present, in terms of what life may inhabit these environments, how this life may be preserved in the rock record, and how this rock record may be ...

Simultaneous Two‐Point Study of the Martian Bow Shock Affected by an Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejection: Tianwen‐1 and MAVEN Observations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
The Martian bow shock (BS) plays a significant role in the Martian plasma environment. Based on observations from Tianwen‐1 and MAVEN, we first report two cases of simultaneous two‐point crossings of the Martian BS affected by an interplanetary coronal ...

Sampling, Mobility, and Anchoring in Small‐Body Sampling Robots: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesSmartBot, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.
Small‐body sampling robots are exploration systems that perform contact, sampling, and stable operations on microgravity bodies such as asteroids and comets. The authors review representative robot architectures and key technologies, focusing on the mechanisms, evolution, and coupling of sampling, mobility, and anchoring.

Rapid Response of Martian Magnetotail to Solar Wind Disturbance: Tianwen‐1 and MAVEN Joint Observations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
The Martian magnetotail is largely controlled by the solar wind (SW) and is modulated by variations in the upstream drivers. However, due to the limitations of single‐spacecraft observations, the effects of SW variations on the Martian magnetotail have ...
