MARS EXPLORATION UPDATE

SC 215 MARS EXPLORATION UPDATE

An unprecedented number of spacecraft are en route to Mars, from the US, China, and the UAE. Missions already in-situ are making groundbreaking observations. If all has gone well, we will learn about planetary weather, hydrology, and whether Mars has harbored-or even still supports-life. Results will be reported from NASA’s Insight and Perseverance/Ingenuity missions, China/ Tianwen-1, and UAE /Hope.
