CfM2: Mars Lander Final Descent

The final descent of the Mars lander vehicles is slowed by parachutes and soft landing is provided by rocket engines. The lander in the foreground is a two-stage rocket which will be refueled with carbon monoxide for ascent from Mars, landing on with its primary stage rockets.
