The Mars Organic Molecule Analyzer, or MOMA, is a miniaturized, highly sophisticated organic chemistry laboratory headed to the red planet aboard ESA's Rosalind Franklin rover (formerly ExoMars). The MOMA mass spectrometer subsystem and main electronics were built and tested at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. This editor's resource page contains video footage and images of MOMA in broadcast resolution.

Mars Organic Molecule Analyzer: Animations
Read moreMOMA uses ultraviolet laser pulses to release and ionize organic compounds captured within crushed Martian surface and near-surface materials. Because each laser pulse lasts less than two billionths of a second, this process effectively ionizes more heat-resistant materials than those accessed by traditional oven-heating (pyrolysis) methods. Pulsed laser processing preserves weak molecular bonds, and enables the identification of organic compounds even in the presence of highly reactive perchlorates commonly found in Martian surface materials. || MOMAposterFull.jpg (1920x1080) [130.9 KB] || MOMAposterFull_print.jpg (1024x576) [73.3 KB] || MOMAposterFull_searchweb.png (320x180) [36.8 KB] || MOMAposterFull_web.png (320x180) [36.8 KB] || MOMAposterFull_thm.png (80x40) [3.7 KB] || MOMA-LDMS.mov (1920x1080) [2.1 GB] || frames/1920x1080_16x9_60p/ldms/ (1920x1080) [256.0 KB] || MOMA-LDMS_h264.mp4 (1920x1080) [91.5 MB] || MOMA-LDMS_1080p60.mp4 (1920x1080) [24.4 MB] || MOMA-LDMS_1080p60.webm (1920x1080) [8.3 MB] ||

Mass Spectrometry 101
Read moreWhat do you do if you have a sample from another planet, and you want to find out if it contains a certain molecule...maybe even one that will reveal that the planet can sustain life? When scientists face a situation like this, they employ an amazing tool: the mass spectrometer. It does the hard work of separating out materials, allowing scientists to look very closely at a sample and see what's inside. Learn more about this tool in the video and animation below! ||
