MAVEN Takes It's First Steps!
This is what most of the questions are! Click to see the videoI do not know the exact date this happened, sorry.

Period: to
Timeline of Mars Atmosphere of Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN)
This project was taken up as top priority because they found dry dents in mars surface that deeply resemble a lake/creek bed. They suspect that there was once an atmosphere there and even enough to support life! They have accepted MAVEN to get to the bottom of this mystery that has been there for centuries, was mars ever capable to support life? And if so, where did the atmosphere go? They suspect underground, we will find all this out with MAVEN to help us! -
Critical Measurments
MAVEN is acknowledged to have critical measurments and listed to have high priority for NASA. -
Similarities
MAVEN was also selected in the same field as 2003 in the NASA Roadman for New Science of the Sun-Earth connection. -
MAVEN WAS CHOSEN

MAVEN is selected again!
MAVEN was selected by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration for Developement as the second Mars scout mission. -
A Major Milestone!
THIS IS A PICTURE OF WHAT MAVEN SHOULD LOOK LIKE NASA will begin mission desighn and implementation based on the 2001 Mars Odyssey and the Mars Reconaissance layouts. -
CRITICAL DESIGHNS... AGAIN!
MAVEN once again takes it's Critical Desighn Rewiew and passes to be proven safe! -
MAVEN will take a risky test
