Did somebody see a brochure or any other printed matter about the Mars
exploration set?

It was just a guess.  I can't find any information on it anywhere.

Where did you find information about the expansion set?

Maybe it will come with a Legoized solar panel for the power jack.

It looked to me like the Mars exploration set would be software
only.  It appeared to be a simulation of a remote camera on
robots moving around on Mars, with options to set the number,
type, and movement characteristics of the (virtual) robots.
That would better fit the $50 price.
