Aurora Science 2017; UK Supports Space Exploration

The first mission in the Aurora programme, ExoMars, will search for traces of past and present life. The ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter, or TGO for short, will be sent out to detect and characterize trace gases in the Martian atmosphere and gain a better understanding of methane and other atmospheric gases that could be evidence of biological or geological activity on the pant service.
