produced huge data sets of potentially immense value for
research as well as for planning and operating future
missions. These collected data include a variety of
information, such as imagery, topography, atmospheric,
geochemical datasets and more, which has resulted in and
still demands, databases, versatile visualization tools and
data reduction methods. Such rate of valuable data
acquisition requires the scientists, researchers and
computer scientists to coordinate their storage, processing
and relevant tools to enable efficient data analysis.
Appropriate tools shall be used during the preparation
phases but also during space operations. Exploiting the
benefits of advanced immersive virtual environments (IVE)
has been recognized as an important interaction paradigm to
facilitate future space exploration.</span><span
