Map of possible landing sites for Red Dragon and Mars2020/ExoMars missions
Jake Robins from WeMartians Podcast has created a map of possible landing sites for SpaceX's first Red Dragon lander and NASA's Mars 2020 / ESA&Roscosmos's ExoMars rovers.
It is presumed that the most possible landing site for SpaceX's first Red Dragon lander is southern Arcadia Planitia. We will see.
- Red X = crashed/failed landings
- Green circle = successful landings
- Yellow ? mark = candidate sites for Mars2020/ExoMars
- Space "X" = candidate sites for Red Dragon
It is presumed that the most possible landing site for SpaceX's first Red Dragon lander is southern Arcadia Planitia. We will see.
