Effects of the 2007 Martian Global Dust Storm on Boundary Positions in the Induced Magnetosphere

Holmström, Mats; Coates, Andrew J.; Frahm, Rudy A. +8 more

Mars's magnetosphere is a sensitive system, varying due to external and internal factors, such as solar wind conditions and crustal magnetic fields. A signature of this influence can be seen in the position of two boundaries; the bow shock and the induced magnetospheric boundary (IMB). The bow shock moves closer to Mars during times of high solar …

Mapping "Brain Terrain" Regions on Mars Using Deep Learning

Zhao, Daniel; Noe, Eldar; Morgan, Alexander M. +2 more

One of the main objectives of the Mars Exploration Program is to search for evidence of past or current life on the planet. To achieve this, Mars exploration has been focusing on regions that may have liquid or frozen water. A set of critical areas may have seen cycles of ice thawing in the relatively recent past in response to periodic changes in…
