In many ways, the surface of the planet Mars is similar to that of Earth. However, Mars's lower gravity has an effect on the settling and transport of sediment particles moving in water. Using specific experimental equipment to measure settling velocity aboard a parabolic flight, it was possible to observe how sediments settled in Martian gravity. These experiments served to illustrate that parabolic flights can be used as analogue environments for surface processes on Mars.
