Abstract

Seismicity models for Mars usually estimate the long-term average annual seismic moment rate, and also the average annual event rate. This holds for estimations based on geological evidence (Golombek et al., 1992, Golombek, 2002, Taylor et al., 2013) as well as for models based on thermal evolution and cooling of the Martian interior (Phillips, 1991, Knapmeyer et al., 2006, Plesa et al., 2018). All studies are compatible with the conclusion based on the non-observation of any unambiguous event by Viking (Anderson et al., 1977, Goins & Lazarewicz, 1979) that Martian seismicity lies somewhere between that of the Moon and that of the Earth. We developed tools to derive reasonable estimations of the annual seismic moment rate from a number of events as small as one, provided that the observed events are beyond the global completeness threshold for observable events. Numerical tests as well as evaluation of terrestrial data shows the feasibility of the approach.

Abstract

Aerial exploration of Mars with helicopters could provide mission capabilities that go beyond that of orbiting satellites, landed spacecraft and rovers. Helicopters allow examination of Mars at visual resolutions comparable to landers and rovers but over much longer ranges. They could access and land at designated targets in a controlled manner and could be used to carry or retrieve small payloads. Helicopters could enhance rover missions by quickly scouting out safe traverse routes or providing reconnaissance on possible science target destinations and, as standalone systems, could be used to explore areas that may not be reachable by rovers. Mars helicopters may also be considered as elements of a sample return architecture where they could be used for timely retrieval of small science samples back to a Mars ascent vehicle for return to Earth. The challenge to helicopter use on Mars is the thin carbon dioxide atmosphere with approximately 1% of the density of Earth’s atmosphere. Much like the Sojourner rover on the Pathfinder mission paved the way for the Spirit, Opportunity, Curiosity and the Mars 2020 rovers, an initial demonstration on Mars is desirable so as to inform the development of future helicopter missions. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory is leading a collaborative effort with AeroVironment Inc., and NASA centers Ames, Langley and Glenn to develop a small helicopter as a technology demonstrator. In this paper we briefly describe the results of this effort including results from controlled free-flight of a full-scale (approx 850 g) prototype flown in a test chamber under Mars conditions, the design and development of the 1800 g (not-to-exceed mass) technology demonstrator helicopter, and the operation of the helicopter.

Abstract

This paper presents the initial results of lander and rover localization and topographic mapping of the MER 2003 mission (by Sol 225 for Spirit and Sol 206 for Opportunity). The Spirit rover has traversed a distance of 3.2 km (actual distance traveled instead of odometry) and Opportunity at 1.2 km. We localized the landers in the Gusev Crater and on the Meridiani Plan urn using two-way Doppler radio positioning technology and cartographic triangulations through landmarks visible in both orbital and ground images. Additional high-resolution orbital images were taken to verify the determined lander positions. Visual odometry and bundle-adjustment technologies were applied to overcome wheel slippages, azimuthal angle drift and other navigation errors (as large as 21 percent). We generated timely topographic products including 68 orthophoto maps and 3D Digital Terrain Models, eight horizontal rover traverse maps, vertical traverse profiles up to Sol 214 for Spirit and Sol 62 for Opportunity, and five 3D crater models. A web-based Ianding-site Geographic Information System (GIS) has been set up at The Ohio State University to update and disseminate the daily localization and topographic information to support tactical and strategic operations of the mission. Also described in this paper are applications of the data for science operations planning, geological traverse survey, survey of wind-related features, and other science applications. The majority of the instruments onboard both rovers are healthy at this moment, and they will continue to explore the two landing sites on the Martian surface. We expect to report further localization and topographic mapping results to be achieved in the rest of the mission period and in post-mission data processing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
