MARS EXPRESS: Radio Science Solar Conjunction Data from 2011

A Mars Express Radio Science dataset collected during the extended mission phase from 2010-01-01 to 2012-12-31. It contains Solar Conjunction measurements covering the specific time range 2011-01-29T16:24:13 to 2011-01 30T18:59:56.500. The data originates from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

Use Cases

• Analyzing solar plasma effects on radio signals based on the Solar Conjunction measurement type
• Studying Martian atmospheric properties during a specific conjunction event based on the 2011 time range
• Calibrating radio science models for the Mars Express mission based on the extended mission phase data

Strengths

• Data covers a precisely defined 2-day observation window in 2011
• Originates from the authoritative source National Aeronautics and Space Administration
• Dataset is part of a defined mission phase from 2010 to 2012

Limitations

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