Capability Assessment of Mars-Forward Capabilities Evaluated but not Implemented During BASALT-2

^x: capability identified before BASALT-2 was conducted, ^*: new capability identified during BASALT-2, NR^a: capability not rated because it did not apply operations or science. NR^b: capability not rated because evaluator did not have sufficient experience with the capability to provide a judicious rating.

3D: three dimensional, AR: augmented reality, CA: capability assessment, E: EV/IV crew rating, EV: extravehicular, EVA: extravehicular activity, IV: intravehicular, LiDAR: light detection and ranging, M: MSC rating, MR: mixed reality, NR: not rated, Ops: operations, Sci: science, SG: space-to-ground, VR: virtual reality, xGDS: exploration ground data system.
