This year the University of Wisconsin-Madison design team studied surface operations for a Mars base. Specifically, research was conducted concerning the possibilities for a Mars Rover Sample Return mission. This year's focus was on the development of a system that would accomplish the primary tasks of the rover, to gather and return samples. All the aspects of this complex and challenging task were investigated. In order to achieve a complete system devices were designed for every stage from sample acquisition to processing and final storage.
