Scientific paper

This presentation discusses the geological field work which will be the key objective to the Mars surface mission. Section one discusses one of the means by which the crew will get into the field, the use of the EVA in the vicinity of the outpost. Guidelines are given for the development of the EVA suit, and conduct of the EVA itself. The next section discusses the use of the unpressurized and pressurized rovers that will be used to transport the crew to sites which are too far to walk and that are of interest. The next section discusses the field camp which will be used for extended exploration of a site too distant to explore with the use of the rovers. The next section discusses mechanisms to evaluate the different toxic and biological hazards which the crew will possibly encounter in all phases of their mission. The methods for sample curation and storage is discussed next. The last section discusses some of the analytical capabilities that are likely to be used on the martian surface, including the possibility of handling biologically active samples.
