将宇航员斯科特·凯利(Scott Kelly)送上国际空间站待一年时间,了解零重力带来的影响。 执行小行星重定向任务(Asteroid Redirect Mission),将一颗近地小行星移动到月球轨道上,从而证明太阳能电力推进在太空中可行。 运用太空发射系统升空的组件,在遥远的地球轨道上,组装一艘火星转移航天器。 在新航天器上,为宇航员往返...
The lander's instruments include a seismometer to detect marsquakes and a probe that will monitor the flow of heat on the planet's subsurface. The lander will be a stationary mission, not like NASA's previous Mars rovers such as Opportunity, Spirit and Curiosity. Staying in one place is ne...
being able to effectively carry out those plans has been, and will continue to be challenging. The space agency released a call to arms of sorts last week, as it released its top objectives for a 30-day, two-person Mars surface mission and asked the public to provide feedback on how th...

InSight will land on Mars on Nov. 26, around noon Pacific Standard Time, on the Elysium Planitia, a volcanic region located in Mars' northern hemisphere, according to NASA. Unlike NASA's previous Mars rovers such as Opportunity, Spirit and Curiosity, the lander will be a stationary mission....
Its plans included building multiple space stations, continued trips to the Moon, and its first crude mission to Mars by the 1980s. Can you imagine watching astronauts walk on Mars the same time the Walkman came out?计划包括建立多个空间站，继续飞向月球，以及在八十年代首次登上火星。你能想象到...
It also ordered the agency to develop a human exploration roadmap for "the long-term goal of human missions near or on the surface of Mars in the 2030s" and specifically asked for a feasibility study of a Mars human spaceflight mission to be launched in 2033. ...
Our communication with the outside was all through email. We had communication with mission control through our software system, but it’s all on a delay. So it was up to 22 minutes on a delay to simulate a real delay you would have with the Mars mission. ...
NASA is set to launch an ambitious mission to Mars on Thursday with the liftoff of its Next-generation Perseverance rover, a six-wheeled robot tasked with deploying a mini helicopter, testing out equipment for future human missions and searching for traces of past Martian life. The $2.4 ...
