Over 20 years have passed since NASA's Viking landers traveled to the surface of Mars. But now NASA is returning, in fact, it's already on the way with one of NASA's faster, better, cheaper missions known as Mars Pathfinder. This mission was developed in 3 years for $171 million dollars and is focused on engineering, science, and technology objectives.
The Mars Pathfinder Microrover Flight Experiment (MFEX) is a NASA Office of Space Access and Technology (OSAT) flight experiment which has been delivered and integrated with the Mars Pathfinder (MPF) lander and spacecraft system. The total cost of the MFEX mission, including all subsystem design and development, test, integration with the MPF lander and operations on Mars has been capped at $25 M??is paper discusses the process and the implementation scheme which has resulted in the development of this first Mars rover.
