Mars Science Laboratory Drill
The Drill for the Mars Science Laboratory mission is a rotary-percussive sample acquisition device with an emphasis on toughness and robustness to handle the harsh environment on Mars. The unique challenges associated with autonomous drilling from a mobile robot are addressed. A highly compressed development schedule dictated a modular design architecture that satisfies the functional and load ...
متن کاملMars Science Laboratory Robotic Arm
The Mars Science Laboratory Robotic Arm (MSL RA) is a critical, single–fault-tolerant mechanism in the MSL science mission that must deliver 5 of the rover’s 12 science instruments to the Martian surface. This paper will describe the design, build, and test methodology which evolved as the science payload matured over the course of the 4-year project. Lessons learned based on the EM and Flight ...
متن کاملMeasurements of energetic particle radiation in transit to Mars on the Mars Science Laboratory.
The Mars Science Laboratory spacecraft, containing the Curiosity rover, was launched to Mars on 26 November 2011, and for most of the 253-day, 560-million-kilometer cruise to Mars, the Radiation Assessment Detector made detailed measurements of the energetic particle radiation environment inside the spacecraft. These data provide insights into the radiation hazards that would be associated with...
متن کاملThe Mars Science Laboratory Engineering Cameras
NASA’s Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) Rover is equipped with a set of 12 engineering cameras. These cameras are build-to-print copies of the Mars Exploration Rover cameras described in Maki et al. (J. Geophys. Res. 108(E12): 8071, 2003). Images returned from the engineering cameras will be used to navigate the rover on the Martian surface, deploy the rover robotic arm, and ingest samples into th...
متن کاملEnvironmental Monitoring Station for Mars Science Laboratory
The Viking Landers measured pressure, wind speed and direction, and air temperature with a small boom [1]. Mars Pathfinder had the Atmospheric Structure Instrument on its lander and recorded pressure, air temperature and wind direction [2]. MSL has environment sensors within its payload as well: it is the REMS (Rover Environmental Monitoring Station) instrument, which is in charge of recording ...
