Since then, more than 1,000 studies were carried out on human missions to Mars, but after 70 years of study, we remain in the early planning stages. The third edition of this book provides an annotated history of key Mars mission studies, with quantitative data wherever possible. Retained from the second edition, Donald Rapp looks at human missions to Mars from an engineering perspective. This includes analyzing the steps in the various proposed mission architectures, as well as the various vehicles and supporting technologies that are involved. In this connection, he discusses the status and potential of a wide range of technologies essential to a human mission to Mars, including life support, radiation, and low-gravity effects, getting there and back, in situ resource utilization, and mission safety. Detailed appendices describe availability of solar energy on the Moon and Mars, as well as the distribution of near-surface H2O. 001453824 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 11, 2023). 001453824 650_0 $$aAstronautics. 001453824 651_0 $$aMars (Planet)$$xExploration. 001453824 651_0 $$aOuter space$$xExploration. 001453824 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001453824 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aRapp, Donald$$tHuman Missions to Mars$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023$$z9783031207259 001453824 830_0 $$aSpringer Praxis books.$$pAstronautical engineering,$$x2365-9602 001453824 852__ $$bebk 001453824 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-20726-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001453824 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1453824$$pGLOBAL_SET 001453824 980__ $$aBIB 001453824 980__ $$aEBOOK 001453824 982__ $$aEbook 001453824 983__ $$aOnline 001453824 994__ $$a92$$bISE
