Exciting,
new Mars missions are under
development at NASA. One
mission currently being discussed
is a Mars airplane called
the Aerial Regional-scale
Environmental Survey of Mars
or ARES for short. This rocket
powered aircraft would be
able to take important measurements
of the Martian atmosphere
and surface which have previously
proven to be elusive. Jennifer
Pulley spoke with Dr. Joel
Levine at NASA Langley Research
Center.
