Resumen
CARASSALE, Santiago; CONTRERAS ALCANTARA, Javier y MARTINEZ PEREZ, Liliana. Humans ∞ Robots on Mars: Exploration and Redrawing of Interplanetary Time and Space. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2023, vol.59, n.2, pp.21-43. Epub 01-Mayo-2023. ISSN 0486-6525. https://doi.org/10.22380/2539472x.2441.
This paper addresses some dimensions of the relationship humans∞robots in the exploration of outer space from the scientific-technological experience of the mission to Mars by NASA’s Martian Explorer Rovers (MER) robots (2004-2018). The work, based on socio-anthropological research on this mission on Martian terrain, traces the evolution of scientific interest in Mars observation, the scientific and technological challenges in the design of MERs, the operational dilemmas and problems (mobility, imaging, telecommunication) on the surface of the red planet, and the challenges of time synchronization for space research from Earth. Finally, we outline some paths and learnings that emerge from this experience for future Latin American space exploration.
