Mars rovers transporting people / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Crewed Mars rovers (also called manned Mars rovers[2]) are Mars rovers for transporting people on the planet Mars, and have been conceptualized as part of human missions to that planet.[3][4]

Two types of crewed Mars rovers are unpressurized for a crew in Mars space suits, and pressurized for the crew to work without a space suit. Pressurized rovers have been envisioned for short trips from a Mars base, or may be equipped as a mobile base or laboratory.[4]
Crewed Mars rovers are a component of many designs for a human mission to the planet Mars. For example, the Austere Human Missions to Mars proposal included two rovers on its uncrewed power and logistics cargo lander. Each rover could hold a crew of two in a pressurized environment, with power coming from a Stirling radioisotope generator.[3]
