MARS EXPRESS ASPERA-3: Electron Spectrometer Raw Data 2017-2018

NASA's Mars Express ASPERA-3 Electron Spectrometer (ELS) data covers the sixth mission extension from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2018. The data are provided in raw units of counts per accumulation. The dataset was last updated on March 13, 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze electron flux variations over time based on the raw counts per accumulation data
• Study Mars's atmospheric and plasma interactions based on electron spectrometer measurements
• Validate or calibrate models of Mars's magnetosphere based on the raw electron data

Strengths

• Data covers a specific two-year mission extension (2017-2018)
• Provided by NASA, a authoritative source for space science data

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
