The Mars Organic Molecule Analyzer (MOMA) instrument onboard the ESA/Roscosmos ExoMars rover (to launch in July, 2020) will analyze volatile and refractory organic compounds in martian surface and subsurface sediments. In this study, we describe the design, current status of development, and analytical capabilities of the instrument. Data acquired on preliminary MOMA flight-like hardware and experimental setups are also presented, illustrating their contribution to the overall science return of the mission. Key Words: Mars-Mass spectrometry-Life detection-Planetary instrumentation. Astrobiology 17, 655-685.
欧洲航天局/俄罗斯航天局的火星外逸层探测器(计划于2020年7月发射)上搭载的火星有机分子分析仪(MOMA)将分析火星表面和次表面沉积物中的挥发性和难熔有机化合物。在本研究中,我们描述了该仪器的设计、当前的开发状态以及分析能力。还展示了在初步的类MOMA飞行硬件和实验装置上获取的数据,说明了它们对任务整体科学回报的贡献。关键词:火星-质谱分析-生命探测-行星仪器。天体生物学17,655 - 685。
