(abstract) Mars Balloon Trajectory Model for Mars Geoscience Aerobot Development
The Mars Geoscience Aerobot (MGA) is a proposed Mars aerobot (robotic aerovehicle) mission featuring advanced capabilities for surface imagimg and atmospheric science. Development of the MGA mission has been catalyzed by science objectives that include surface geology and atmospheric measurements. The MGA consists of a superpressure balloon that is reflective on top and white on the bottom to avoid condensation CO&sub2; frost during the night. The MGA also features a
