TOOLS: Mars Express Data and Command Planning Tools MEXAR/RAXEM Mainteinance and Evolution

This is was an activity aimed at improving our deployed tools at ESA (namely Mexar2 and Raxem). During this activity

•  we have updated Mexar2 to meet new requirements from the mission planning users
• we have developed and deployed a completely new version of Raxem, called Raxem2, able to support the complete Uplink work cycle. Raxem2 is in continuous daily use since Fall 2008 replacing the previous planning tools.
