The purpose of this presentation is to provide insight into NASA’s current thinking for human exploration on the surface of Mars as part of a December 2020 joint NASA/COSPAR workshop addressing planetary protection issues. This presentation has two major sections. The first section provides a general overview of human Mars missions. This includes major mission events typical of these missions and anticipated range of mission durations. The second section summarizes expected environmental conditions and operations on the surface of Mars and some of the planetary protection related question of current interest in planning for these human missions.
