Planetary Science

• Single Expedition ship
• Used for a small research outpost for planetary science
• Is used for secondary research missions, e.g. if lab assembly or mobile lab are on expedition, this unit can be deployed to secondary sites for stand-alone expedition
• Is also used for follow-up research e.g. if results from old samples or from home coming expedition raise further questions or require non-pressing follow-up analysis
• Ship takes Rover for the surface, also deploys research station
• Research Station is for weather measurements, passive as well as active
• The rover is used to collect various rock samples
