The inability to test planetary spacecraft in the flight environment prior to a mission requires engineers to rely on ground-based testing and models of the vehicle and expected environments. One of the most widely used engineering reference models of planetary atmospheres are the Global Reference Atmospheric Models (GRAMs). The NASA Science Mission Directorate (SMD) has provided funding support to upgrade the GRAMs since Fiscal Year 2018. The GRAM upgrades are being developed by NASA Marshall Space Flight Center and NASA Langley Research Center. This poster provides details regarding recent MarsGRAM upgrades.
