MARS EXPRESS MRS: Radio Science Occultation Data from 2019-03-23

A Mars Express Radio Science data set collected during the extended mission phase from 2019-01-01 to 2020-12-31. It is an occultation measurement covering the specific time interval 2019-03-23T19:10:00.000 to 2019 03-23T20:45:00.000. The dataset is provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

Use Cases

• Modeling Martian atmospheric density profiles based on occultation measurements.
• Analyzing signal propagation and attenuation for radio science experiments.
• Studying temporal atmospheric variations during a specific occultation event.

Strengths

• Data originates from the Mars Express mission, a recognized planetary science source.
• Covers a specific, well-defined time interval for an occultation event.
• Part of an extended mission phase from 2019-01-01 to 2020-12-31.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
