Title:
Results from the Emirates Mars Mission: Up, Down, and All Around
Abstract:
The Emirates Mars Mission (EMM) began its science phase on May 23, 2021, and has been making major contributions to the exploration of Mars' atmosphere on a global scale. From its weather-satellite-like orbit with a period of 55 hours, the Hope Probe uses its infrared, visible, and ultraviolet remote sensing instruments to measure the characteristics of the atmosphere extending from the surface all the way to the edge of space. These observations have now been made over multiple Martian years covering all longitudes and times of day across most latitudes. These data are improving our understanding of circulation and weather in the Martian lower and upper atmosphere, as well as the vertical coupling and the impact of lower atmospheric dynamics on the escape of light species to space. In this seminar I will provide highlights of scientific results from the mission to date, including findings outside of the original mission scope such as flying by the moon Deimos and providing groundbreaking observations of Martian aurora.
