A small step on the red planet will be a big step for human beings. Humans have launched 46 Mars exploration missions since October 1960, but only 19 of them have been successful, according to China Daily. It’s ...
sending robotic probes to Mars has become more commonplace [12]—many rocketry experts believe nuclear propulsion will be needed to power regular manned trips to Mars, though the timeline for doing so may be more than a decade after SpaceX achieves its goal of first sending people to the ...
The present investigation will focus on the formulation and analysis of possible abort modes during the Earth departure phase of manned Mars interplanetary transfers. Though of short duration, the departure phase encompasses a mission timeline where failures have frequently become manifest in historical ...
A brief timeline of early Mars missions.(Image credit: Future) Humanity first attempted to reach Mars near the dawn of the space age. The first satellite, the Soviet Union'sSputnik, launched in 1957; only three years later, the Soviet space program looked to extend its reach to Mars. ...
Precursor robotic missions to Mars that involve teams of multiple cooperating robots to accomplish some of these tasks is a cost effective solution to the possible long timeline necessary for the deployment of a manned habitat. Ongoing work at JPL under the Mars Outpost Program in the area of ...
Musk gave a slightly more thorough timeline These upcoming missions are all about "establishing a cargo route to Mars," Musk told thePost. Any colony on the Red Planet is going to need additional supplies delivered over time — such as more food or replacement hardware. But the window to se...

SpaceX’s primary goal has been to colonize Mars and make life multiplanetary. Moving to get the Starship program rolling toward initial launches to Mars is a necessity. With this optimistic timeline, the company could make serious progress in the next ten years. ...
Profile 2 introduces segments to a crewed mission to Mars which are not actually crewed, but instead are either purely cargo-based in which case only the M and V terms factor into the ESM cost, or autonomous where M, V, P, and C for uncrewed operations matter. Since cargo missions do ...
