Mars Exploration

Mars Exploration refers to the scientific investigation and study of Mars, the fourth planet from the Sun in our solar system. This exploration encompasses various methods including robotic missions, orbiters, landers, and rovers designed to gather data about Mars’ geology, climate, atmosphere, and potential for past or present life. Initiated in the 1960s, Mars Exploration has included numerous missions from various space agencies, particularly NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA), and others. The goals of these missions can range from mapping the planet’s surface and analyzing its soil and rocks to understanding its water resources and preparing for future human exploration. Mars Exploration aims to deepen our understanding of the planet’s history and evolution, and assess its habitability in the context of broader questions about life in the universe.
