Steven W. Squyres
Steven Squyres's research focuses on the large solid bodies of the solar system: the
terrestrial planets and the satellites of the Jovian planets. His work involves analysis
of data from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes, as well as a variety of types
of geophysical modeling. Areas of particular interest include the tectonics of Venus,
the history of water on Mars, and the geophysics of the icy satellites of the outer
planets. Data analysis and theory are used together to examine the processes that have
shaped the surfaces and interiors of these bodies. Squyres has participated in a
number of planetary space flight missions. From 1978 to 1981 he was an associate of
the Voyager imaging science team, participating in analysis of imaging data from the
encounters with Jupiter and Saturn. He was a radar investigator on the Magellan
mission to Venus, a member of the Mars Observer gamma-ray spectrometer flight
investigation team, and a co-investigator on the Russian Mars `96 mission. Dr.
Squyres is currently the scientific Principal Investigator for the Mars Exploration
Rover Project. He is also a co-investigator on the Mars Express mission, and on the
Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter's High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment. He is a
member of the Gamma-Ray Spectrometer Flight Investigation Team for the Mars Odyssey
mission and a member of the imaging team for the Cassini mission to Saturn.
