A Program for Planetary Exploration

Science, 1983
On the basis of a two-year study, the NASA Solar System Exploration Committee recommends a core program of planetary missions through the year 2000. By incorporating a number of cost-saving measures, an exciting program of planetary exploration can be achieved within a highly constrained NASA budget.

Mobile Robots for Planetary Exploration

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1995
Abstract Mobile robots are key components in planetary exploration, to extend the area in reach for measurements, and to access points of scientific interest. After a review of particular design constraints of the space environment, a survey of planetary rover activities since the sixties is given. In particular, requirements and technical approaches

Aerobots in planetary exploration

2000 IEEE Aerospace Conference. Proceedings (Cat. No.00TH8484), 2002
Robotic balloons (aerobots) may significantly change the future of in situ planetary exploration. On Mars, the aerobots can fill the gap in resolution/coverage between the orbiters and rovers. Powered aerobots (airships) can make controlled global flights for high-resolution radar, visible, infrared, thermal, magnetic, and neutron mapping; they can be ...

Human Planetary Exploration

2019
This chapter examines the legal implications of the ambitious plans to send manned missions to Mars and establish permanent human presence in outer space announced. It addresses the concept of “colonizing planets” and its potential consequences. It offers an overview of the applicable existing legal norms and presents a number of potential legal ...

Curie-Montgolfiere Planetary Explorers

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2007
Hot‐air balloons, also known as Montgolfiere balloons, powered by heat from radioisotope decay are a potentially useful tool for exploring planetary atmospheres and augmenting the capabilities of other exploration technologies. This paper describes the physical equations and identifies the key engineering parameters that drive radioisotope‐powered ...
