• Ultraviolet radiation on the surface of Mars and the Beagle 2 UV sensor (2002, methodology): “Remote sensing by the UV spectrometer instruments on the Mariner 7 and 9 probes has been carried out (Barth and Hord, 1971; Barth et al., 1973 ), followed by Phobos-2 observations in the UV-A (? 315 nm) region (Moroz et al., 1993; Wuttke et al., 1997).”
• Martian surface mineralogy from Observatoire pour la Minéralogie, l'Eau, les Glaces et l'Activité on board the Mars Express spacecraft (OMEGA/MEx): Global mineral maps (2007, background): “Therefore our mapping was restricted to the latitudes range between 50 and 50 .”
• The Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS) for the Mars 2001 Odyssey Mission (2004, background): “In addition, in situ measurements from the Viking and Pathfinder landers, together with studies of the martian meteorites, indicate the presence of all of the other elements necessary to support life (e.g. McSween, 1994; Bell et al., 2000).”
• Stability of hydrous minerals on the martian surface (2003, unknown): “Although we did not evaluate Mg-exchan smectites in the current study due to a lack of labora or thermodynamic data, Mg-smectites would be expec to hold even more water than Ca, and Mg is more ab dant in the martian surface materials than Ca (Clark, 19 Bell et al., 2000).”
• Global mineral distributions on Mars (2002, methodology): “[9] The Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES) on board the MGS spacecraft has returned data in the 200–1650 cm 1 ( 6–50 mm) portion of the spectrum (see a brief instrument description below as well as thorough descriptions of the TES instrument and operations by Christensen et al. [1992] and Christens”
• Ages and Geologic Histories of Martian Meteorites (2001, background): “, 1997; Bell et al., 2000). Although rocks at the Pathfinder site are thought to be derivative from the southern Martian highlands, the Al2O3 content of the “sulfur free rock” is much lower than that of lunar highland soils and even lower than in lunar mare soils. On average, the Martian crust appea”
• Mars Exploration Rover Athena Panoramic Camera (Pancam) investigation (2003, background): “…and a rock drilling device constitute the Athena payload, a synergistic collection of science investigations designed to address the goals of the MER mission, which involve investigating the role of water in the geological history of two separate landing sites on Mars [Squyres et al., 2003].”
