ESA is always thinking ahead to the next generation of space missions, testing new technology far in advance to make concepts a reality.
One area being tackled by ESA's Future Missions Preparation Office is the high-speed delivery of planetary penetrators to sample and analyse the surface and immediate subsurface of a planet or moon.
Planetary penetrators are mini spacecraft that contain a suite of instruments, but they land at high speed - tens to hundreds of kilometres per hour - compared with the conventional "soft-landers" that have previously been used in planetary or lunar exploration.
