Mars Exploration
Mars Exploration refers to the scientific investigation of the planet Mars, primarily conducted through the use of robotic spacecraft, rovers, and landers. This exploration aims to understand Mars' geology, climate, atmosphere, and potential for past or present life. Mars Exploration has been undertaken by various space agencies, including NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA), and others, with missions that include orbiters studying the planet from space, as well as surface missions that analyze soil, rocks, and atmosphere directly. The ultimate goal of Mars Exploration encompasses not only the acquisition of scientific knowledge but also the preparation for potential future human exploration of Mars.
