This paper will provide an overview of current concepts and options for the architecture and design of a Mars Sample Return Lander (called Sample Return Lander, SRL). Key mission objectives and the overall baseline mission design will be described, including the constraints and a notional timeline from launch to entry, through surface operations, to delivery of the samples to Mars orbit. The overall lander vehicle concepts will be described, including current options being evaluated.
