ABSTRACT AN AUTOMATED SAMPLE ACQUISITION & PREPARATION SYSTEM FOR LORAX

The LORAX project will perform a micro-biological assay of large ice fields such as those found in the Antarctic, the polar regions of Mars or the surface of Europa. To do this, it will make use of a rover which carries a new UV spectrometer which scans over specially prepared samples of ice and sno...
