Mars sample return mission, artwork C016 / 3071
Mars sample return mission. Artwork of concepts for a proposed Mars sample return mission. Here, a rocket-powered descent stage is lowering a sample-retrieving rover and an ascent vehicle (inside cylinder) to the surface of Mars. The ascent vehicle would receive samples of Martian rocks that are to be collected by a previous mission and retrieved by the rover. Then it would launch the samples into Martian orbit for a rendezvous with a spacecraft that would carry them to Earth. NASA and the European Space Agency are collaborating on proposals for a mission to gather samples of Martian rocks and bring them to Earth after 2020

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Mars sample return mission" takes us on a visual journey into the realm of space exploration. Created by NASA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, it showcases concepts for a proposed Mars sample return mission that could revolutionize our understanding of the Red Planet. In this stunning illustration, we witness a rocket-powered descent stage gracefully descending towards the Martian surface. Suspended beneath it is an intriguing duo: a sample-retrieving rover and an ascent vehicle cleverly housed within a cylinder. These ingenious machines work in tandem to collect samples of Martian rocks previously gathered by another mission. The ultimate goal? To launch these precious samples into orbit around Mars, awaiting rendezvous with a spacecraft destined for Earth. This ambitious collaboration between NASA and the European Space Agency promises to bring back invaluable pieces of our neighboring planet after 2020. As we gaze at this awe-inspiring scene, we are reminded of humanity's insatiable curiosity and relentless pursuit of knowledge about our solar system. The intricate details depicted in this artwork highlight the cutting-edge technology and scientific research involved in such missions. Through its masterful blend of artistry and science, this image invites us to dream big and imagine what lies beyond our earthly boundaries. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity, reminding us that no challenge is too great when it comes to unraveling the mysteries that lie millions of miles away on Mars' rocky surface.
