Limits on Runoff Episode Duration for Early Mars
9 hours ago Runoff episode durations are model-dependent and spatially variable, and no climate model scenario can satisfy a unique duration for all coupled systems. In the near future, these quantitative constraints on early Mars lake persistence may be tested through in situ observations from Perseverance rover.

Mars’ Surface Radiation Environment Measured with the
10 hours ago On the Mars surface, during the 300-day period near the maximum of solar cycle 24, we found an average total GCR dose rate at Gale crater (–4.4 km MOLA) of 0.210 ± 0.040 mGy/day, compared with 0.48 ± 0.08 mGy/day measured during cruise inside the MSL spacecraft (Fig. 3 and Table 1). The difference in dose rate is driven by several ...

Surface radiation on Mars may require living underground
12 hours ago Re: Surface radiation on Mars may require living underground. « Reply #66 on: 11/07/2021 11:40 am ». And it wouldn't need to be buried so deep. About 4m of rock (or icy soil) would be enough to bring down radiation levels to Earth equivalent. Even that depth wouldn't be bad.

Perseverance rover reveals an ancient delta-lake system
9 hours ago Mars is currently cold and hyperarid; liquid water is not stable at its surface. However, orbital and rover observations of features including valley networks, sedimentary fans, and ancient lake beds indicate that the planet once had a warmer, wetter climate (1–3).Uncertainties remain about the character, timing, and persistence of aqueous activity (and therefore potential habitability) on ...

Frequently Asked Questions
Where does NASA do the simulated Mars missions?
The series of missions are known as Crew Health and Performance Exploration Analog (CHAPEA), which will see three one-year Mars surface simulations based at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas.
How long would a trip to Mars take?
That means you will have to spend 3-4 months at Mars before you can begin your return trip. All in all, your trip to Mars would take about 21 months: 9 months to get there, 3 months there, and 9 months to get back.
What are the characteristics of a Mars mission?
This mission class requires a large amount of energy to be expended in transit, even after taking advantage of either a Venus swingby (on either the inbound or outbound leg) or a deep space propulsive maneuver in order to limit Mars and Earth entry speeds. There are three distinguishing features of this mission profile.
How many crew members will be on Mars Dune Alpha?
Each mission will consist of four crew members who will live in Mars Dune Alpha, an isolated 1,700 square foot habitat. The mission will consist of rigorous training and problem solving exercises, including simulated spacewalks.
Where can you see the Curiosity rover on Mars?
Experience Curiosity. Use this interactive experience to learn about the Curiosity Rover and its adventures in the Pahrump Hills region of Gale Crater on Mars.
What does access Mars do for the public?
Access Mars allows any member of the public to explore the discoveries of NASA's Curiosity rover. Access Mars lets users visit several sites from the past five years of discoveries made by NASA's Curiosity rover.
Is there a way to go to Mars?
Access Mars lets users visit several sites from the past five years of discoveries made by NASA's Curiosity rover. Clicking on the floating spheres in Access Mars lets users see actual photos taking by NASA's Curiosity rover that allowed scientists to make new discoveries.
How many feet per hour does the Mars Curiosity travel?
Curiosity is able to travel up to 295 feet (90 meters) per hour on its six-wheeled “rocker-bogie” system. The term "bogie" comes from old railroad systems.
