Travelling at a maximum speed of 13,210 miles per hour, the Mars Odyssey, a mission that is still ongoing to today’s date, is a special spacecraft part of NASA’s Mars Exploration Program. It is a very unique spacecraft with a great purpose and many amazing contributions. The Mars Odyssey was launched on April 7, 2011. The spacecraft’s primary mission was to discover water and shallow buried ice on Mars. In addition, the mission of the Mars Odyssey spacecraft also included […]
They’ve discovered water on Mars. They’ve taken cool selfies of Mars. They’ve lasted more days, years actually, than what NASA expected. The Mars rovers have helped with many astronomers with the exploration of this planet. For example, the Curiosity rover has been doing its mission for almost 7 years and has found evidence of life on Mars. Another example is InSight rover. This rover will help determine the interior structure of Mars and if it has any seismic activity. Rovers […]
A professional writer will make a clear, mistake-free paper for you!
Get help with your assignmentThe intense period called the entry, descent, and landing (EDL) phase of the mission begins when the spacecraft reaches the top of the Martian atmosphere, traveling at about 13,200 miles per hour (5,900 meters per second). EDL ends about seven minutes later with the rover stationary on the surface. From just before jettison of the cruise stage, 10 minutes before entry, to the cutting of the sky crane bridle, the spacecraft goes through six different vehicle configurations and fires 76 […]
Remember last year? Yes, 2018 was filled with many triumphs. Including one by NASA! On November 26, 2018, NASA landed a probe and a mole (yes a mole, get over it) onto the Martian surface. Now, you may be asking, “What in the world is NASA going to do with a fat mole on Mars?” Well, this mole will test human survival on the rough terrain and weather on Mars. All this research is for one goal and one goal […]
NASA has sent may rovers to Mars that have proven there was once water and still could be some on its surface. Mars has proven itself to be a very mysterious planet. Rovers that have been sent to Mars have found multiple examples that life could have existed on the planet. Satellites orbiting Mars have found that it has also lost most of its atmosphere. This means Mars was probably a lot like earth and could be in the future. […]
The idea of living in space has been talked about for a while, and to be more specific I am referring to the Planet Mars. Any possibility of humans living on the planet Mars is not something that will be taking place in the near future but the idea of it actually is something we could make possible. In this paper, I will touch on the positives and negatives of pursuing a Mars colonization referencing the four essays. It’s important […]
The science labs here at school are full of fun and excitement for a while when you’re young. Up until a point where you don’t want to sit in a boring school science lab. It all just feels so repetitive and not so fun anymore. Of course, when your are young you can’t wait to put on the goggles and dissect that frog or play with those chemicals. But once you hit a few years later you want to do […]
A standout amongst the most intriguing and entrancing planets in our nearby planetary group is the planet Mars. If seen by humans, they would be amazed at the actual sight of Mars. Mars is the fourth planet from the sun and the last of terrestrial objects. The planet is known for his blazing red look and its dangerously volcanic surface. “Mars” comes from The Roman God of war, Ares. Mars surface is mostly covered with rocks, volcanoes, and craters thanks […]
This research paper is written to explore NASA in depth. This paper has some important description of Mars. The paper focusing on a future Manned mission which will be held in future toward Mars. This paper also trying to explain about some obstacles that may be faced during mission toward mars, like challenges to astronauts while building spacecraft, managing supplies, and shelter in space. The paper also has little bit comparison of Earth with Mars which help you to understand […]
NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) has announced that the 2020 Mars Rover is going to explore the planet like never before. It plans to carry seven instruments to help explore and investigate the red planet. This project’s overall cost is estimated at $130 million. The overall mission of the 2020 Mars Rover is to collect samples from the planet and bring them back to Earth The 2020 Mars Rover mission is scheduled to depart in July and is being […]
The planet that I can say I have the most personality with is Mars and it is my zodiac planet. I am an Aries accordioning to the zodiac signs, I was born in April during Aries season. Aries people are ruled by Mars and are also the first fire sign in the zodiac. Mars is red because of iron on the surface has been exposed to oxygen and has become rust-like. Mars has seasons like earth because they have similar […]
Mars has not seen any life today but there has been many discoveries that has led to predictions that one day humans will be able to live on other planets other than Earth. Research done has proved that there could be evidence that sustains a possible environment on Mars and early life. Antarctica is the closest environment on Earth compared to what it could be life to live on planets, especially planet Mars. Mars is the planet to research and […]
A volcano is defined, by NASA, as an opening on the surface of a planet or moon that allows material warmer than its surroundings to escape from its interior. While volcanoes are a generally thought of as a feature of Earth, there are plenty of other planets and even moons with a range of extinct, dormant, and active volcanoes in our solar system, and presumably in others as well. Once a feature has been officially defined as a volcano, it […]
When individuals think of space exploration, they think of the stars of the show such as Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon; or perhaps John Glenn, the first American to orbit the earth. However; those individuals do not ponder on the fact that the behind the scenes components of NASA are the most important factors that led to Global Exploration of the universe unknown. These behind the scenes components are computers. From the human computers who […]
Every kid has thought about being an astronaut, floating in space and playing around, but many people think that space exploration is something that we should not do, and point our money to something more useful such as poverty in the United States. Man has always been interested about space. From when we landed the first man on the moon to now where we are launching rockets to mars with Tesla model S in it. One of the reason that […]
“Floating above navy base” was published by CHRISTINE YOUNAN on 13th November 2017. As the title suggests, the article talks about a “”photo”” of a UFO hovering over skies over a Californian navy base. Approximately a week ago, my article club members and I happened to come across this random article on our Facebook feed. When we first read the title, we were astounded, so we started reading the article just to found out that it was just a click-bait. […]
