Received: 14/04/2016 Accepted: 22/09/2016 Abstract In this article we characterize the radiative environment at the landing sites of NASA's Mars Exploration Rover (MER) and Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) missions. We use opacity values obtained at the surface from direct imaging of the Sun and our radiative transfer model COMIMART to analyze the seasonal and interannual variability of the daily irradiation at the MER and MSL landing sites. In addition, we analyze the behavior of the direct and diffuse components of the solar radiation at these landing sites. Key words: Solar radiation; Mars Exploration Rovers; Mars Science Laboratory; opacity, dust; radiative transfer model; Mars exploration. Variabilidad estacional e interanual de la radiación solar en las coordenadas de aterrizaje de Spirit, Opportunity y Curiosity Resumen El presente artículo está dedicado a la caracterización del entorno radiativo en los lugares de aterrizaje de las misiones de la NASA de Mars Exploration Rover (MER) y de Mars Science Laboratory (MSL). -

FROM WET PLANET to RED PLANET Current and Future Exploration Is Shaping Our Understanding of How the Climate of Mars Changed
FROM WET PLANET TO RED PLANET Current and future exploration is shaping our understanding of how the climate of Mars changed. Joel Davis deciphers the planet’s ancient, drying climate 14 DECEMBER 2020 | WWW.GEOLSOC.ORG.UK/GEOSCIENTIST WWW.GEOLSOC.ORG.UK/GEOSCIENTIST | DECEMBER 2020 | 15 FEATURE GEOSCIENTIST t has been an exciting year for Mars exploration. 2020 saw three spacecraft launches to the Red Planet, each by diff erent space agencies—NASA, the Chinese INational Space Administration, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Space Agency. NASA’s latest rover, Perseverance, is the fi rst step in a decade-long campaign for the eventual return of samples from Mars, which has the potential to truly transform our understanding of the still scientifi cally elusive Red Planet. On this side of the Atlantic, UK, European and Russian scientists are also getting ready for the launch of the European Space Agency (ESA) and Roscosmos Rosalind Franklin rover mission in 2022. The last 20 years have been a golden era for Mars exploration, with ever increasing amounts of data being returned from a variety of landed and orbital spacecraft. Such data help planetary geologists like me to unravel the complicated yet fascinating history of our celestial neighbour. As planetary geologists, we can apply our understanding of Earth to decipher the geological history of Mars, which is key to guiding future exploration. But why is planetary exploration so focused on Mars in particular? Until recently, the mantra of Mars exploration has been to follow the water, which has played an important role in shaping the surface of Mars. -

Known for writing and composing music in a wide range of style, Morricone composed several hit songs including the score to "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" , which is considered one of the most influential soundtracks in history and was even inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. -
