Mars Sample Return Science

Mars Sample Return Science is a scientific framework that systematically enables the analysis and interpretation of extraterrestrial materials through the planned retrieval and terrestrial investigation of samples collected from the Martian surface, thereby distinguishing itself from other planetary science methodologies by its focus on ex situ, high-precision characterization to assess potential biosignatures and planetary history.
