Scientific paper

Mars aerobots constitute a class of mission nearly a factor of 10 smaller than earlier concepts for Mars balloons. A key goal is to achieve high payload mass fraction in a small total systems mass and to maximize the scientific potential of that payload. The "low and slow" attributes of aerobot flight paths afford advantages for many observations and measurements of Mars. Scientific objectives include surveys of remnant magnetism, studies of the surface with high resolution stereo imaging, and investigations of the structure and dynamics of the atmosphere with an in situ meteorology payload.
