MARS EXPRESS MRS: Radio Science Occultation Data from 2019

MARS EXPRESS MRS 1/2/3 EXTENDED MISSION 7 4024 V1.0 is a Mars Express Radio Science data set collected by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. It contains occultation measurements from the extended mission phase between 2019-01-01 and 2020-12-31. A specific measurement interval covers 2019-07-28T02:35:00.000 to 2019-07-28T04:25:00.000.

Use Cases

• Analyzing Martian atmospheric structure based on radio occultation measurements.
• Studying signal propagation and attenuation through the Martian atmosphere.
• Validating atmospheric models using time-stamped radio science data from a specific mission interval.

Strengths

• Data originates from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, a recognized space agency.
• Covers a defined extended mission period from 2019-01-01 to 2020-12-31.
• Includes a specific, high-resolution measurement interval of approximately 1 hour and 50 minutes.

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.
