Mars 2005 Sample Return Workshop : held at NASA Ames Research Center, March 25-27, 1996

Abstract

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.
