European Space Agency
Mars Express
The European Space Agency (ESA)
Mars Express Mission
consists of an orbiter and associated instruments.
The
ESA Planetary Science Archive (PSA)
is the
primary source for Mars Express data and provides data
search and download capabilities. The latest releases of
data from the various payload elements, in
PDS-compatible formats, can be found on the PSA.
Through a cooperative agreement between ESA and NASA, Mars Express data
may also be distributed by the Planetary Data System.
PDS copies of Mars Express data are available
on this Geosciences Node web site and at other PDS
Nodes as noted.
The Mars Express payload elements and
experiments are listed below. Please acknowledge the
Principal Investigator (PI) of a Mars Express data set
when using the data in a publication.
