Mars Express Radio Science Occultation Data from 2016-11-19

One occultation measurement from the Mars Express mission, recorded on 2016-11-19 between 03:17:01 and 04:02:00. This data was collected by NASA during the extended mission phase from 2015-01-01 to 2016-12-31. The dataset is a Mars Express Radio Science data set.

Use Cases

• Analyzing atmospheric density profiles based on radio signal occultation data.
• Studying ionospheric electron density based on radio science measurements.
• Modeling signal propagation through the Martian atmosphere based on the described occultation event.

Strengths

• Data originates from NASA's Mars Express mission, a credible source for planetary science.
• Covers a specific, well-defined occultation event on 2016-11-19.

Limitations

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