Understanding the dynamics of the surface environments of planetary bodies with atmospheres, such as Mars, Venus, and Titan, will enable us to gain insight into their geochemical cycles and water resources, as well as the environments that can support life. In order to understand the dynamics of the surface environments, we need to extend our knowledge to three dimensions by conducting not only detailed observations at a single point but also observations at multiple points on planetary surface. Examples include understanding global water transport, atmospheric circulation, three-dimensional subsurface structure, and production and consumption of bioavailable materials on Mars. In this presentation, we will discuss the new Mars and planetary science opened up by such innovations in landing technology.
