ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter Mutual Radio Occultation
Despite the growing importance of planetary Space Weather forecasting and radiation protection for science and robotic exploration and the need for accurate Space Weather monitoring and predictions, only a limited number of spacecraft have dedicated instrumentation for this pu ...
Cold Atom Interferometry (CAI) is a promising new technology for gravity missions, enabling measurements with a potential error level that is several orders of magnitude lower compared to classical electro-static accelerometers. Whereas the latter typically suffer from high no ...
Planetary Radio Interferometry and Doppler Experiment (PRIDE) technique
A test case of the Mars Express Phobos fly-by
Context. The closest ever fly-by of the Martian moon Phobos, performed by the European Space Agency's Mars Express spacecraft, gives a unique opportunity to sharpen and test the Planetary Radio Interferometry and Doppler Experiments (PRIDE) technique in the interest of studyin ...
