The exploration of the solar system has proceeded in several phases beginning with flyby missions, proceeding to orbiters, then to probes and landers and finally mobile vehicles that operate on the surface and in its atmosphere. For the most accessible planetary bodies, Venus and Mars, we are now entering the phase of mobile exploration of the surface and atmosphere.
