The Chemistry of Mars focuses on the chemical exploration of Mars, with diverse viewpoints on the future of Mars research in terms of terrestrial missions. The holistic view of Mars’s chemistry is elucidated through a full scale picture of current knowledge and future intentions and explorations, including a review of temperature, surface pressure, wind, dust-cover, water-ice, and CO2 surface ice. This book provides a dedicated resource for space and planetary scientists, astrochemists, and chemists looking beyond Earth applications, including students, academics, and professionals.
- Provides a complete overview of the chemistry of Mars, including surface, atmosphere, and compositional elements
- Covers a broad range of topics, including Mars's temperature, surface pressure, wind, dust cover, water ice, and CO2 surface ice
- Explores the topic with a future-focused approach that covers current debate and discussion topics
