WASHINGTON, Jan. 31: NASA’s Mars 2020 Perseverance rover mission will travel 470.8 million kilometers when it lands on Mars on Feb. 18 next month.
Launched on July 30 last year, the rover is currently closing the route at 1.5 miles per second, NASA said.
In the atmosphere of the Red Planet, a seven-minute descent awaits – the temperature associated with the surface of the sun, supersonic parachute inflation and the first autonomous guiding landing on Mars.
Only then will the rover be able to search the Jesero abyss for signs of old life and finally collect the monsters that return to Earth.
“NASA has been exploring Mars since the creation of Mariner 4 in July 1965 with two more flypieces, seven successful orbiters and eight lander,” said Thomas Surbuchen, assistant administrator at NASA’s Washington headquarters. Thomas Surbuchen said in a statement.
“The diligence built from the collective knowledge of such pioneers expands not only our knowledge of the Red Planet, but one of the most important and exciting questions about it for mankind. To explore the origin of life on Earth on other planets.”
The Jesuit Gorge is considered to be the perfect place to see signs of ancient microbial life.
Billions of years ago, the now-bone-dry, 45-kilometer-wide bed contained a rapidly forming river delta and a waterlogged lake.
Xerxes’ diligent model caching system will help answer the basic questions about the existence of extraterrestrial life in the collecting rock and regolith (broken rock and dust).
NASA’s two future missions, which are currently in the planning stages, will work with ISA (European Space Agency) to bring the models back to Earth, where they will be analyzed in depth by scientists around the world. Great equipment. And complex to send to the Red Planet.
The Mars 2020 mission is part of a larger project that will include missions to the moon in preparation for human exploration of the red planet.
