    Mars Telescopic Observations II : held at Tucson, Arizona October 2-3, 1997
    (Lunar and Planetary Institute, 1997) Sprague, Ann L. ; Bell, J. F. (James Francis)
    Papers presented at the workshop described the current NASA plans for Mars exploration over the next decade, current and recent Mars research being performed by professional astronomers, and current and past Mars observations being performed by amateur observers and observing associations.

    Mars 2005 Sample Return Workshop : held at NASA Ames Research Center, March 25-27, 1996
    (Lunar and Planetary Institute, 1997) Gulick, Virginia C.
    The purpose of this workshop was to reexamine the science issues that will determine how an optimum sample return mission would be carried out in 2005 given the new context that has emerged for Mars exploration since the last such workshop was held (in 1987). The results and summary of discussion that took place at the meeting are presented.
