Mars Landing Sites Explored by American and Soviet Scientists
American and Soviet researchers at Brown University map potential Mars landing sites for the 1990s and beyond. Chryse and Hellas appear likely, with Mangala Valley cited by Greeley as a prime US target. Polar caps, ancient highlands, and volcanic basins offer clues to past climate and possible life. planners stress careful, joint study and phased missions through 1992 and 1994 to frame future landings and sample returns.
