A small rover, emerging from a landed module. Goes along the surface
and picks up say 50 kilos of samples. Then it returns to the module, it takes off and comes back to Earth. Or, it could dispense the samples, leave the return craft and stay on Mars doing more experiments. How large would such a platform need to be to escape Martian gravity which is 1/3 that of Earth's? |
