Mars Express Radio Science Occultation Data from Extended Mission

Mars Express Radio Science data collected by NASA during the extended mission phase from 2019-01-01 to 2020-12-31. The dataset includes occultation measurements covering a specific time interval from 2020-09-23T02:35:00.000 to 2020-09-23T03:25:00.000.

Use Cases

• Analyzing Martian atmospheric profiles based on occultation measurements.
• Studying signal propagation and attenuation in planetary environments.
• Validating radio science instrument performance during extended mission operations.
• Correlating occultation data with other Mars Express mission datasets.

Strengths

• Data originates from the NASA Mars Express mission.
• Specific measurement time range is documented (2020-09-23T02:35:00.000 to 2020-09-23T03:25:00.000).
• Dataset covers 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.
