The Science Process for Selecting the Landing Site for the 2020 Mars Rover
Abstract
The science process for selecting the landing site for the NASA Mars 2020 rover is summarized. A series of three open workshops served to discuss and assess approximately 30 sites that were down-selected first to eight and then three final candidate sites. A final workshop in October, 2018 will further assess the three final sites and will be followed by final selection of the landing site.
