Скачать или смотреть MaQuIS Mission: Quantum Tech Reveals Mars’ Interior and Atmosphere

How can quantum sensors help us see inside Mars?
In this video, discover the MaQuIS (Mars Quantum Gravity Mission for Interior Structure and Atmosphere), a next‑generation European mission concept that uses quantum sensing to map Mars’ gravity field and unlock the Red Planet’s interior and atmosphere.
You’ll learn:
What MaQuIS is and why Delft University of Technology and European partners are developing it
How quantum cold atom interferometers and laser ranging between two satellites can measure tiny changes in Mars’ gravity
How these gravity measurements reveal Mars’ crust, mantle plumes, lithosphere structure, and subsurface water and volatile reservoirs
How MaQuIS can trace CO2, H2O and dust cycles, polar ice mass changes, and atmospheric pressure variations over seasons and years
Why understanding Mars’ internal activity and volatile cycles is critical for future robotic and crewed missions (landing sites, resources, and hazards)
How MaQuIS builds on GRACE and GRAIL heritage while pushing European leadership in quantum space technologies
The mission design: twin spacecraft, 200 km formation flying, laser links, accelerometers, and multi‑year operations in low and higher Mars orbits
