MARS EXPRESS MRS: Radio Science Occultation Data from 2019-04-06

Mars Express Radio Science data collected during the extended mission phase from 2019-01-01 to 2020-12-31. The dataset is an occultation measurement covering a specific observation window from 2019-04-06T04:25:00.000 to 2019-04-06T06:05:00.000. It was published by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and last updated on the platform in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling Martian atmospheric density profiles based on radio signal occultation data
• Analyzing temporal variations in the Martian ionosphere based on the specified observation time
• Validating atmospheric models for Mars using data from the Mars Express extended mission phase

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative National Aeronautics and Space Administration
• Covers a precisely defined observation window from 2019-04 06T04:25:00.000 to 2019-04-06T06:05:00.000
• Part of the extended mission phase with a defined collection period from 2019-01-01 to 2020-12-31

Limitations

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