Scientific paper

Possible research goals and techniques are considered for future space probes to Mercury, Venus, and Mars. Proposed goals include investigations of surface morphologies, upper-layer chemical and mineral compositions, and the structure and composition of deeper layers. It is suggested that the surface of Venus could be analyzed spectrometrically using a movable laser mounted on a space probe to evaporate material at selected points on the surface layer. Simulations of planetary environments are discussed, and problems associated with surface probes of Mars are considered, particularly the effects of dust on landers and their instruments.
