Mars Express Radio Science Occultation Data from Extended Mission 2019-2020

Mars Express Radio Science occultation measurements collected by NASA from 2019-01-01 to 2020-12-31. The data covers a specific event on 2020-08-28T04:58:37.000 to 2020-08-28T05:20:45.549. This dataset is part of the Mars Express extended mission phase.

Use Cases

• Modeling Martian atmospheric density profiles based on occultation measurements.
• Analyzing signal propagation through the Martian atmosphere based on radio science data.
• Studying temporal atmospheric changes on Mars based on the 2019-2020 extended mission timeframe.

Strengths

• Data collected during a defined extended mission phase from 2019-01-01 to 2020-12-31.
• Specific time range for the occultation event is precisely documented.
• Data originates from the authoritative source NASA.

Limitations

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