Spaceflight without any doubt is playing exactly this role. The voyage to Mars will certainly not be a direct source of food for the hungry. However, it will lead to so many new technologies and capabilities that the spin-offs from this project alone will be worth many times the cost of ...

Seismometers played an important role in early missions to planets and satellites. The first seismometers were sent to the Moon by Ranger 3, 4, and 5 in 1968, and all Apollo missions conducted seismic experiments. Likewise, both Viking Mars landers carried seismometers in 1976. While the Apol...
first step in returning American astronauts to the Moon for the first time since 1972, for long-term exploration and use. This time, we will not only plant our flag and leave our footprints — we will establish a foundation for an eventual mission toMars, and perhaps someday, worlds ...
In recent images from the Mars exploration rover, the ground texture resembles a smudged version of very distinctive stone stripes on some mountain slopes on Earth, which result from repeated cycles of freezing and thawing of wet soil, though it might also be due to wind, downhill transport,...
