==== Cruise stage ==== {{Expand section|date=June 2023}} The lander and Rosalind Franklin rover will be sent to Mars inside the descent module. The descent module will be attached to the carrier module, which will provide power, propulsion, and navigation. The carrier module has 16 hydrazine powered thrusters, 6 solar arrays that will provide electricity, [[Sun sensor]]s and [[star tracker]]s for navigation. It was developed and built by OHB System in Bremen, Germany. The carrier module will separate from the descent module right before the stacked spacecraft arrives at Mars.<ref>{{Cite web|title=ExoMars carrier module prepares for final pre-launch testing|url=https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Human_and_Robotic_Exploration/Exploration/ExoMars/ExoMars_carrier_module_prepares_for_final_pre-launch_testing|access-date=2022-01-15|website=www.esa.int|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Russia works on ExoMars-2020 lander design|url=http://www.russianspaceweb.com/exomars2018-2017.html|access-date=2022-01-15|website=www.russianspaceweb.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=ExoMars 2022 - Satellite Missions - eoPortal Directory|url=https://directory.eoportal.org/web/eoportal/satellite-missions/content/-/article/exomars-2020|access-date=2022-01-15|website=directory.eoportal.org}}</ref>
