Event
The first mission devoted to observing the Martian atmosphere and its evolution, NASA’s MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution), has ended after more than 11 years in orbit at Mars and a decade beyond its primary, one-year mission. The spacecraft was heard last on Dec. 6, when it experienced an unexpected loss of signal after it passed behind the Red Planet. NASA will host a media teleconference to discuss MAVEN’s achievements. Participants in the teleconference include: - Tiffany Morgan, director, Mars Exploration Program, Planetary Science Division, NASA Headquarters - Mike Moreau, project manager, MAVEN, NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland - Greg Heckler, deputy program manager for Capability Development, SCaN (Space Communications and Navigation), NASA Headquarters - Shannon Curry, MAVEN principal investigator, Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics at the University of Colorado Boulder

No related launch rows are currently resolved for this catalog record.
This record is built from the Launch Library 2 public catalog cache. The page keeps provider, pad, vehicle, astronaut, event, and location records separate from launch detail pages so source-backed facts stay easy to audit.
NASA MAVEN Farewell Media Teleconference is treated as a non-launch event record. Use it for event identity, event timing, type, external references, and any linked launch context rather than as a primary launch schedule page.
This page owns the catalog record. Collection pages own browsing, launch pages own mission timing and status, and the info hub explains the wider public-data surface.
