Information
Our Milkyway Galaxy On Mars, Nasa discovered liquid [WATER]. Nasa scientists are thinkng there is life that lies beneath the divine planet. Mars is 21.1111° (celcius) at maximum and a lowest of -253° (celcius) at The Poles. Recently, the NASA ROVER was sent up to mars to conduct tests and find evidence of life on mars. The ROVER checked many heavy rocks and all of the natural environment. The ROVER found the water which NASA scientists are currently working on. The NASA ROVER was connected to wireless cameras that reported all the information to the NASA Base in Washington D.C (USA). A day in Mars is 24 hours and 40 minutes. I know this is a Mars website but if you do the math, (24.40x7) a Mars week would be 170.80 hours or 171.20 hours. One year on the red planet called Mars, is 686.96 years. NASA Contributions to ESA’s Trace Gas OrbiterThe European Space Agency's (ESA) ExoMars program (Exobiology on Mars) seeks to understand if life ever existed on Mars. Just as other countries often participate in NASA Mars missions, NASA contributes scientific, engineering, and technical expertise to other world efforts to explore Mars. The first mission in the ExoMars program is called the Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO). Trace Gas Orbiter will seek to detect methane and other gases that may be present in small concentrations in the Martian atmosphere. To prepare for a future landing of ESA’s ExoMars rover, the TraceGas Orbiter will deploy a Mars landing demonstration craft called Schiaparelli. Trace Gas Orbiter will later provide communications support for ESA’s ExoMars Rover and a Russian Lander. NASA's participation in the 2016 ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter includes the "Electra" telecommunication radios. Used successfully on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, Electra acts as a communications relay and navigation aid for Mars spacecraft. Electra's UHF radios support navigation, command, and data-return needs. Electra enables precision navigation. As an Electra-carrying spacecraft, ESA's 2016 orbiter can communicate with arriving spacecraft with similar Electra payloads in order to determine their position and speed in relation to Mars upon their approach. After incoming landers and rovers have arrived safely on the surface of Mars, Electra can provide precise Doppler data. When combined with ESA's 2016 orbiter position information, this Doppler data can accurately determine the location of the lander or rover on the surface of Mars. Using its nadir-pointed (pointed straight down at the surface) antenna, Electra can also provide UHF coverage to Mars landers and rovers on the surface that may not have sufficient radio power to communicate directly with Earth by themselves. Distances and Size In Diameter, Mars is 6780 km. (WIDE) In Radius, Mars is 3,390 km. (HALF) Distance from Sun: 227.9 million km. Distance from Earth: 54.6 million km. |
