Mars Analogue Studies
 

Ground-penetrating Radar (GPR) is recognized as one of the fundamental tools for probing subsurface geology and finding water on Mars. Through this project GPR data is collected in Mars analog environment at Craters of the Moon (COM) in Idaho, in order to identify and model subsurface geology and presence of water. These studies will help interpret future GPR data acquired through MARSIS (Mars Advanced Radar and Subsurface and Ionosphere Sounding) and SHAllow RADar (SHARAD) missions to Mars.
