Mars Exploration

Mars Exploration refers to the scientific investigation and study of the planet Mars through various means, including robotic missions, landers, rovers, and orbiters. The primary goals of Mars exploration are to understand the planet's geology, climate, and potential to support life, both in the past and present. Missions to Mars seek to gather data about its surface and atmosphere, investigate its water resources, and assess its habitability. Over the decades, numerous spacecraft, including the Mars Rovers (like Spirit, Opportunity, Curiosity, and Perseverance) and orbiters (such as Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and Mars Odyssey), have contributed to a greater understanding of the Martian environment and its history. Mars exploration is not only pivotal for gaining insights about our neighboring planet but also plays a crucial role in the broader context of planetary science and the search for extraterrestrial life.
