Mars Express Radio Science Occultation Data from 2022

MARS EXPRESS MRS 1/2/3 EXTENDED MISSION 8 4266 V1.0 is a Mars Express Radio Science dataset collected by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. It contains occultation measurements from the extended mission phase between 2021-01-01 and 2022-12-31. The specific data covers a time period from 2022-05 24T04:53:02.000 to 2022-05-24T05:55:21.299.

Use Cases

• Analyzing Martian atmospheric density profiles based on radio occultation measurements.
• Studying signal propagation and attenuation through the Martian atmosphere.
• Modeling planetary atmospheric structure using time-series radio science data.
• Validating atmospheric models for Mars based on specific observational windows.

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
• Covers a specific, well-defined time range from 2022-05-24T04:53:02.000 to 2022-05-24T05:55:21.299.
