MARS EXPRESS: Phobos Gravity Measurements from Extended Mission

Mars Express Radio Science data collected by NASA during the extended mission phase from 2013-01-01 to 2014-12-31. The dataset likely contains Phobos gravity measurements for a specific observation period on 2013-12-30. The data was last updated on 2026-03-13.

Use Cases

• Modeling Phobos's gravitational field based on radio science measurements
• Analyzing spacecraft orbital perturbations based on gravity data
• Studying the mass distribution and internal structure of Phobos

Strengths

• Data originates from NASA's Mars Express mission
• Specific observation time range is provided: 2013-12-30T20:23:30.000 to 2013-12-30T23:20:55.500

Limitations

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