ExoMars

The ExoMars spacecraft is almost complete. A joint mission between ESA and Roscosmos, it begins with the launch of the ExoMars orbiter in 2016 and carries an aerodynamically designed capsule containing a robotic lander.

Getting to Mars, landing there safely and searching for life is a huge scientific and technical challenge. ExoMars 2016 will send back information about the Martian atmosphere and the lander?s findings. These will inform the second part of the mission, in 2018, when a European rover will drill into the Martian surface, up to two metres down. The rover will be trying to detect traces of organic molecules that indicate the presence of past or present life on Mars.

This video includes interviews with Jorge Vago, ExoMars Project Scientist, ESA and Pietro Baglioni, ExoMars Rover Manager, ESA. It shows ExoMars 2016 nearing construction in its clean room at Thales Alenia Space in France and a prototype ExoMars rover in the ExoMars test yard at ESA?s ESTEC facility in the Netherlands.

  1. In my opinion better to try the ring of asteroids that lies between Mars and Jupiter, to select a block of ice, set the charges on them so that they fell to Mars. Thus there will be more water. Her pair raise density of the atmosphere because of which melts at the poles caps of frozen carbon dioxide, and will raise the density of the atmosphere even more. From this it follows that it is possible to use parachutes for landing, no need to carry water to the plant and can be grown in open ground. And if the water will be enough at the equator is reduced temperature fluctuations. water will heat the battery like on the ground. I understand that this is a super complex task can just about no one thought, decided to tell.

  3. La plupart des humains ne se rendent m?me pas compte que leurs parents les avaient contraints d'exister sur Terre, bient?t ils seront contraints d'exister sur Mars ou sur la Lune et ne comprendront m?me pas l'obligation qui leur a ?t? faite d'exister et d'exister dans des conditions dantesques. Et quand ils naissent handicap?s, ils ne trouvent rien ? redire ? leurs si gentils parents. Cela s'appelle l'impr?gnation…
