Overview
Overview
Missions to explore the planets are critical steps towards understanding some of the biggest science questions: Do habitable environments exist elsewhere? Did life have a chance on other worlds? Can humans survive on Mars?
Projects
Projects
Mars landing site selection
Mars landing site selection
How does the science community pick the final site for a mission?
What factors play the largest role?
Are there other exploration strategies to employ?
We leverage our experience on NASA missions, instrument science teams, and working groups to address these questions.
