The Mars Sample Return (MSR) Project aims to bring carefully selected Martian samples to Earth in 2008. This international effort involves NASA, CNES, and other space agencies, utilizing advanced landers, rovers, and orbiters.

Area of Science:

  • Planetary Science
  • Astrobiology
  • Space Exploration

Background:

  • The Mars Sample Return (MSR) Project is a multi-mission endeavor.
  • International collaboration is crucial for its success.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To detail the current design status of the Mars Sample Return missions.
  • To outline the flight hardware for sample collection and return.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing a 2003 and a 2005 mission launch.
  • Employing NASA-provided landers, rovers, and Mars Ascent Vehicles (MAVs).
  • Leveraging the French Space Agency (CNES) Ariane 5 launch and Earth Return Mars Orbiter.
  • Incorporating NASA-provided Earth Entry Vehicles.

Main Results:
