European Mars Science & Exploration Conference: Mars Express & Exomars
Preparations are gearing up for the next step in the European exploration of Mars with the ExoMars mission, which comprises a capable rover devoted to astrobiological studies with access to the subsurface, and possibly a geophysical package and a scientific and communications orbiter. The ExoMars scientific objectives will be discussed at the meeting and its instruments presented, as well as areas where ExoMars could benefit from Mars Express studies, such as landing site selection, will be identified. Goals for potential European exploration of the Red Planet after ExoMars will also be addressed.
