This paper presents reinforcement learning (RL) policies for dynamic quadrupedal locomotion in planetary exploration scenarios. Building on a taskoptimized quadruped with a 5-bar leg design, we develop RL policies for walking, vertical jumping, forward jumping, and in-flight attitude control, explicitly tailored to the reduced gravity on Mars. These policies jointly enable such robots to overcome obstacles larger than themselves through coordinated jumping and precise in-flight reorientation for safe landings. We demonstrate Sim2Real transfer of the attitude control policy on the Olympus quadruped through single-axis reorientation tests, while all locomotion policies are validated in simulation. A complete Mars exploration mission scenario demonstrates coordinated policy deployment across challenging terrain. Experimental results show 90{\deg} attitude reorientation in 2.6 seconds, with simulations demonstrating 3.1 meter vertical jumps and 3.9 meter forward jumps under Martian gravity conditions. - Supplementary video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlSJ3P87A4A
