NASA collected potential evidence of life on Mars. Now it’s pitching new plans to retrieve the cache (原创不易) 1)Two new potential strategies for returning crucial samples from Mars to Earth by the 2030s are now on the table, according to NASA. The proposals present alternatives to the ...
NASA(美国航空航天局)has plenty of experience operating wheeled rovers(探测车)on Mars, but it’s never tried to fly a helicopter on the red planet before. The helicopter, Ingenuity, will get a chance to make history in April by flying the Martian skies, but first it needs to be delivered...
“landing on mars is all about finding a way to stop, and stopping in the right place,” he had said. the first step is the extreme sport of using the atmosphere to slow spacecraft down. then, 7 miles above the red planet, new technology called a “range trigger” would deploy a ...

If Ingenuity succeeds, helicopters could soon become an important part of the Mars-exploration toolkit. "We could put sensors on them and use them as science platforms, and also as scouts," Jurczyk said. Aerial reconnaissance by rotorcraft could allow rovers to "drive more autonomously, and ...
Past rovers have seen, touched, tasted and smelled Mars in their own robotic fashion, but none has yet captured true audio on the Red Planet. Related: How to watch NASA's Perseverance rover land on Mars Perseverance rover's Mars landing: Everything you need to know You may like Listen...

“Mars rovers have driven over steeper terrain, and they’ve driven over more slippery terrain, but this is the first time one had to handle both, and on this scale,”said JPL’s Camden Miller, who is a rover planner, or “driver,” with the Perseverance mission. “For...
Opportunity and its twin, Spirit, landed in different parts of Mars in January 2004 on a three-month mission to search for evidence of past water activity. Both rovers found plenty of such evidence, then kept on exploring the Red Planet; Spirit ceased communicating with Earth in 2010, while...
