ExoMars

ExoMars (for Exobiology on Mars) is a space program to search for signs of life on Mars. It was a collaboration of the European Space Agency (ESA) and Roscosmos, the Russian space exploration organization, but ongoing work was put on hold when Russia invaded the Ukraine. Since then, a collaboration has been set up between ESA and NASA to continue the effort. Missions:

• Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO).
• Schiaparelli - an experimental Mars lander.
• Kazochok - lander intended to land the Rosalind Franklin (in development).
• Rosalind Franklin - rover (in development).

The new collaboration aims to deploy Rosalind Franklin with a new launch vehicle and lander. Rather than the earlier 2022 launch plan, it will be launched 2028 at the earliest.
