During the last six decades of planetary exploration, rapid developments in technology have helped enable the exploration of Mars. To demonstrate the technical feasibility of off-Earth mining, new technologies are being developed to identify, remotely extract, and collect commodities under different environmental conditions. Impressive machines, tools, and operational procedures have been developed that allow scientists to study in detail the atmosphere, surface, and subsurface of Mars, progressing from flybys to orbiters to stationary landers to rovers. Key technologies have been developed to provide data for understanding and characterizing the geology, mineralogy, internal structure, atmospheric composition, and dynamics, as well as to identify the possibility of life on Mars. This makes Mars a major target for human colonization, exploration, and mining.
