This third volume of the award-winning The International Atlas of Mars Exploration picks up the story where Volume 2 left off, after the first Martian year of Curiosity's mission in 2014. Covering the exploration of Mars from 2015 to 2021 and supported by a unique set of detailed annotated maps and graphics, this volume documents the activities of Opportunity, Curiosity, InSight, China's rover Zhurong, and the early activities of Mars 2020. This essential visual reference chronicles the day-to-day operations of each mission, recording future landing site planning, how landing sites were chosen and what happened during each mission. Like the previous volumes, the atlas is accessible to space enthusiasts, but the bibliography and meticulous detail make it a particularly valuable resource for academic researchers and students working in planetary science and planetary mapping.

Covering the exploration of Mars from 2015 to 2021, this atlas is a detailed visual reference. It presents information from diverse sources, featuring annotated maps, photographs, tables and detailed descriptions of every Mars mission in chronological order. This is a unique resource for planetary and space scientists, historians and cartographers.

Arvustused

'I am very pleased to read the third volume of The International Atlas of Mars Exploration, edited by Dr Phil Stooke. The book provides a detailed account of international Mars exploration activities over the past decade, especially lander missions, which resonates with me greatly. The numerous exquisite illustrations and precise descriptions in the book rekindle my desire to revisit the history of Mars lander/rover missions. First and foremost, I think this is an excellent reference book that will be very helpful for my teaching work. Additionally, for young readers, it provides a systematic way to follow the milestones of international Mars exploration along a timeline, including how exploration missions are planned, how landing sites are chosen, what challenges and difficulties can be encountered during mission implementation, and how engineering teams can overcome these obstacles, among other topics. This will certainly enhance young readers' understanding of history, expand their knowledge, and inspire their passion for space exploration.' Xiao Long, China University of Geosciences 'Dr Phil Stooke continues to share his keen encyclopaedic knowledge of Mars with the world. I've worked on multiple missions covered in this book, and even I learned a lot of new information from it. I cannot recommend this book enough to anyone interested in humanity's exploration of the Red Planet.' Tanya Harrison, Outer Space Institute, Canada

Philip J. Stooke is a cartographer and imaging expert at the University of Western Ontario, whose interest in mapping the Moon and planets began during the Apollo missions. He has developed novel methods for mapping asteroids and many of his asteroid maps are now accessible from NASA's Planetary Data System. He has studied spacecraft locations on the Moon and Mars, notably locating Viking 2 on Mars. He is the author of many papers and articles on planetary mapping, planetary geology, and the history of cartography and planetary science. His previous Cambridge volumes The International Atlas of Mars Exploration: The First Five Decades, Volume 1 and From Spirit to Curiosity, Volume 2, have each won the Choice Award for Outstanding Academic Title (2013 and 2017).
