From Mariner's first pictures of Mars in 1964 to Curiosity's landing in August 2012, humans have been on a quest to learn about the Red Planet. Explore the climate and geology of Mars and the challenges of robotic exploration in space. You’ll have the chance to work in mission design teams and use budget and science guidelines from NASA to create a spacecraft to fly to Mars.
