Following the presentation of the Pasteur Instruments, the ones composing the ExoMars Rover scientific arsenal, today’s focus goes to the Humboldt Payload to be integrated in the Geophysics and Environment Package (GEP) that will activated after the Rover’s egress and that will scrutinity the planet’s environment and its geophysics with the goal of achieving a whole set of new data about Mars.
The Humboldt Payload will have two sets of instruments, the ones dedicated to the environment, enlarging our knowledge on radiation, dust, humidity and meteorology with a very special aim in mind: to characterise possible hazards for future manned missions.
The other set of instruments is dedicated to martian geophysics, which will scrutinize processes occurring in the planet’s interior with the goal of understanding Mars evolution.
As I did yesterday, I’ve organized the presentation of the instruments in the graphic shown below to facilitate its interpretation. Click it to see it.
