Space Facts II - Future Mars Sample Return Mission

The video tutorial outlines a Mars mission focused on collecting soil samples and conducting scientific experiments. It details the separation of the ascent vehicle from the orbiter, the landing of the Mars Rover, and its year-long exploration of the Martian surface. The Rover transmits data back to Earth and collects samples, which are later transferred to the ascent vehicle. The ascent vehicle launches and returns to a space station orbit, where the sample canister is quarantined until retrieval by a space shuttle for return to Earth.
