The progress in the development of a surface analysis tool based on the excitation of characteristic luminescence and x-ray spectra at ambient pressure with an electron beam is described.
Students 18 years of age and younger were invited to propose experiments that were consistent with MECA's Mission: to help us better understand how humans will be able to live on Mars.

As scientists and engineers primarily employed by the public, we have a responsibility to "communicate the results of our research so that the average American could understand that NASA is an investment in our future...". Not only are we employed by the public, but they are also the source of future generations of scientists and engineers. Teachers typically don't have the time or expertise to research recent advances in space science and reduce them to a form that students can absorb. Teachers are also often intimidated by both the subject and the researchers themselves. Therefore, the burden falls on us - the space scientists and engineers of the world - to communicate our findings in ways both teachers and students can understand. Student Nanoexperiments for Outreach and Observational Planetary InquirY (SNOOPY) provides just such an opportunity to directly involve our customers in planetary science missions.
