Martian Cratering 4: Mariner 9 Initial Analysis of Cratering Chronology [PDF]

, 1973
Early analyses of cratering and other Martian surface properties that indicated extensive ancient erosion have been strongly supported by Mariner 9 data.

The color of the Martian sky and its influence on the illumination of the Martian surface [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 1999
The dust in the atmosphere above the Mars Pathfinder landing site produced a bright, red sky that increases in redness toward the horizon at midday. There is also evidence for an absorption band in the scattered light from the sky at 860 nm. A model of the sky brightness has been developed [Markiewicz et al., this issue] and tested against Imager for ...

Modern microbial landscape: Aerial mapping of microbially induced sedimentary structures forming in a coastal sabkha

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microbially induced sedimentary structures (MISS) are considered important for understanding primitive life on Earth and for guiding the search for life on other planets. These structures are regarded as macroscopic fossils of early communities of unicellular organisms that did not produce skeletons or shells. In this study, field observations

A new model describing Forbush Decreases at Mars: combining the heliospheric modulation and the atmospheric influence

Earth and Planetary Physics, 2020
Forbush decreases are depressions in the galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) that are caused primarily by modulations of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) but also occasionally by stream/corotating interaction regions (SIRs/CIRs).

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Spaceflight and sport science: Physiological monitoring and countermeasures for the astronaut–athlete on Mars exploration missions

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight impacts essentially every system in the human body, resulting in multisystem deconditioning that might impair the health and performance of crewmembers, particularly on long‐duration exploration missions to Mars. In this review, we apply the sport science model of athlete monitoring, testing and training to astronauts;

Jumping on the moon as a potential exercise countermeasure

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Moon's gravitational field strength (17% Earth's gravity) may facilitate the use of bodyweight jumping as an exercise countermeasure against musculoskeletal and cardiovascular deconditioning in reduced gravity settings. The present study characterised the acute physiological and kinetic responses to bodyweight jumping in simulated Lunar ...

A review of volatiles in the Martian interior [PDF]

, 2016
Multiple observations from missions to Mars have revealed compelling evidence for a volatile-rich Martian crust. A leading theory contends that eruption of basaltic magmas was the ultimate mechanism of transfer of volatiles from the mantle toward the ...
