Over billions of years, a relentless flow of particles from the Sun - the solar wind - has slowly stripped away the Martian atmosphere, causing surface water to evaporate. But how exactly did this happen? NASA's new ESCAPADE mission aims to find out. Launching no earlier than Oct. 13, 2024, the Escape and Plasma Acceleration Dynamics Explorers (ESCAPADE) mission will be studying Mars' real-time response to the solar wind, helping us better understand Mars' climate history. To learn more visit The ESCAPADE mission is managed by the Space Sciences Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley, with key partners Rocket Lab, NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Advanced Space LLC, and Blue Origin.
