Title : This is an artist's concept depicting a possible scene of astronauts walking on Mars during a dust storm

Caption :

This is an artist's concept depicting a possible scene of astronauts walking on Mars during a dust storm. The artwork was part of a NASA new initiatives study which surveyed possible future manned planetary expeditionary activity. Scientists and researchers involved in the study, realizing that a hostile environment will confront long-distance space travelers, note the requirement of highly specialized technologies and systems, e.g., the durable type suits, depicted here, for protection against the dust storm.
