Abstract

Endlessly, mankind has been pursuing its dream toward understanding and conquering our neighboring planet, Mars since Mars has been identified as a planet. After the development of advanced science and technology of human race in 1960, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) had initiated its dream toward Mars and finally at present mankind acquires numerous important clues of Mars through over forties of space programs toward Mars. Furthermore, mankind takes its effort in colonizing Mars within several decades. This manuscript introduces the history of space mission programs of Mars up to date and major scientific findings to understand the Mars.

인류가 육안으로 화성 표면에 대한 연구를 시작한 이래 지금은 최신의 과학적 방법으로 화성에 대한 탐구를 계속하고 있다. 1960년 이후 구소련연방이 화성 코라블(Korable) 4호를 발사한 것을 시작으로 2008년 오늘에 이르기 까지 약 40여 차례의 화성탐사를 시도해 화성에 대한 인류의 궁금 중을 해결해 왔으며, 이제 화성에 인류가 도착하기 위한 곰에도 도전하고 있다. 이 논평은 현재까지의 이루어진 화성연구에 대한 주요 결과를 고찰한다.
