“You will see there is really no visible plant life or animal life. And you have got this wonderful volcanic material.” Mauna Loa, 2,500 metres above sea level, is geologically very similar to Olympus Mons on Mars. When measured from its base, deep in the ocean, Mauna Loa is the se...
The size of the rocket required to launch and object into space depends on the size of the object being launched. The Falcon 9 Block 5 measuring 70 metres tall was used to launch a two-man crew to the ISS in May, 2020.Answer and Explanation: ...
This is where you get the best experience of a place, in my opinion, because you’re actually staying with someone who knows it like the back of their hand. When isn’t it more enjoyable to explore somewhere with someone who loves the place in which they live and is excited about shari...
The first of NASA's rovers, Sojourner, which reached Mars in 1997, was 65cm long andweighed (on Earth, where the gravitational pull is 2? times Mars's) 10kg. Spirit andOpportunity, its twin successors, were larger, at 1.6 metres and 170kg. Curiosity, bycomparison, is a monster. At 3...
there are probably several better ways. It’s not as if there is nothing between shiny Web 4.0 we’re-all-going-to-Mars flying cars on the one hand, and people living in caves, knapping flints and grunting on the other. I realise that’s going to be news to some people, but a ...
Mars landing is staged for the cameras. However, when the empty spacecraft burns up on reentry due to a faulty heat shield, the U.S. Government decides the astronauts must die to avoid revealing the hoax, resulting in a fraught chase across the desert. The idea forCapricorn Onecame from...
The museum’s Spitfire is not full-sized. It is a 3/4 scale replica that was under construction by Bob Noren when he passed away at the age of 41. It was presented to the museum in his memory, and was completed by members of the Maintenance Group of 443 Squadron, stationed at P...
(Okay, it's also important how close to this CO2 molecule, are the other CO2 molecules that could capture the photon emitted by this molecule, but that doesn't change the essence of the answer to your question.) For example, Mars has a much higher fraction of CO2 than Earth does, but...
Millimeter wave technology is used in the treatment of skin cancer (due to its known skin-heating properties), which means it undeniably has an effect on human cells. Like all other forms of radiation, millimeter waves don’t differentiate between healthy cells and malignant cells. In the case...
This question is at the heart of Europe's ExoMars rover, scheduled to launch in 2020 and land in 2021 to drill up to two metres below the surface to retrieve and analyse samples in search for biomarkers. Mars is thought to be currently coming out of an ice age. Like Earth, Mars is ...
