16		-Harvesting energy locally on Mars during manned Mars missions will be very important for supporting the power systems of the future Mars habitats. Delivering energy resources from Earth to Mars will be too expensive, meaning that usage of any energy sourceavailable in the Mars environment will be very useful. In addition to solar energy, wind energy could also be considered as a potential source of energy.Martian surface winds, with a wind velocitythat would correspond to about 3m/s on Earth, are not a particularly powerful mean for harvesting energyon Mars, but they could still serve as an auxiliary source.
	20	+In 2021, the first Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV) performed its first flight on Mars. With this flight, Ingenuity developed by NASA, proved that VTOL aircraft can operate under Martian conditions. However, furtherresearch and development is necessary to take out full advantage of flying vehicles during a Mars mission.

18		-AVAWTtherefore wants to measure the power generation and wind velocityat the test site with a Savonius VAWT style wind turbine during the mission.These turbines are lightweight, have a simple construction and can be easily deployed and mounted on a nearby small hill or even at the top of the habitable module.To increase efficiency, a new structural improvement of the turbines is also being tested: rectangular openings are made in both blades and covered with flexible patches. These patches bend with thewind and allow the air to flow through the openingson the side where the wind blows on the blade’s convex surface. This will reduce the dynamic pressure on the convex side of the turbine, thus increasing the difference between the dynamic pressures on the turbine’s two sides and generating greater rotational momentum.With this improvement the maximum torque of the wind turbine could increase up to 60%.
	22	+The Rover Aerial Mars Support and Exploration System (RAM-SES) is a technology system for future UAVs using an AI-based network to autonomously detect landing sites in Mars-like environments. With participation in AMADEE-24, RAMSES’s novel approach demonstrates the process of detecting visual points of interest, either scientifically or for safe UAV navigation.

20		-**Independent Experiment:**
	24	+The expected outcome is to utilize an AI-based network togenerate a heat map for successfully detecting landing sites inthe mission area. Additionally, the system contains gener-ated pixel-wise maps and provides comprehensive and detaileddepictions of scientific points of interest in Mars-like environments. RAMSES evaluates data gathered by other robotic vehicles to create the aforementioned heat map and points of interest. In turn, this data can enhance the mission capabilities ofother teams to further demonstrate collaboration between experiments.

23		-* Under supervision of GOST CDR
24		-* Eligible for site access
	26	+To achieve the defined experiment objectives within AMADEE-24,RAMSES focuses on evaluating data gathered by the SAMPLE experiment. With the help of the ground truth of the mission area data,we are able to compare the system’s pixel-wise map coordinates andimprove the precision of the location of notable features for scientific research in order to contribute to the advancement of scientificknowledge about the environment. In the context of collaborative experimentation, RAMSES shall be subjected to proof-of-concept teststhat aim to exhibit its capabilities in supporting AMADEE-24 andfuture missions.
