The spacecraft ExoMars 2016 is on first launched with a reassuring cliche – Sixactualités

Having advanced harmoniously together since the beginning of this project into the moment all its promises, the European Space Agency, and Russia sent closer to the sun -the journey is still long cependant- that fascinates us most in our galaxy, Mars, the ExoMars probe, we can be proud of. The barrier of distance, which can go from our “blue planet”, from 60 to 400 million kilometers, required a successful launch, sticking to a schedule, ideally at the time of the is called a “window” (the period, returning regularly, during which, the Earth-Mars distance is closest). Odyssey Exomars, illustrated by a recent first cliché, unveiled Thursday, and attesting to the excellent health of the probe, always looking for his destination, with accurate and valuable tasks: analysis of the atmosphere Mars and an unpublished essay! landing

the combined efforts of the European and Russian space agency in the hope of finding a trace of life on Mars

For once, this is not NASA (uS space agency), which the star, offering us an astronomical treasure, we take delight us with attendance and enthusiasm intertwined. It is the cooperation between Russia and Europe, which deserves applause, with the trip without incident, according to the European Space Agency (ESA), which was very reassuring, the ExoMars probe, which was launched by a Proton rocket on 14 March of this year 2016, which will amaze you. Its main objective, as his second name might imply we willingly (TGO or Trace Gas Orbiter), is to explore, near the famous red planet, including gas, most prominently, methane, which could promote an existing or known life to hatch, in the future, in an atmosphere being, which is to recall, at first more hostile. A first snapshot of galactic journey ExoMars, a reflection of his good health, we reached Thursday, but they did not reveal the mysterious “Red Planet”, undergone a number of futuristic fantasies, that since time immemorial, but with acommodations of ambitions now feasible.

Space Agency and Russia does not plan to stay on their scientific hunger with a second mission on the ground planned from 2018

the European Space Agency and Russia have therefore entrusted as inaugural mission (another will follow), their joint probe, the hypothetical detection of the presence of life, even if it belongs to what is the register of infinitely small (we could have said microbial) on the mysterious Mars, by not focusing at all on the past, but the goal looking to the future. Besides, ExoMars, is equipped with a high-tech jewel, with a high definition camera provided by Switzerland, which promises shots, the timelapses, or finally, with regard for the moment , photos with ultra-precision. It’s a starry sky, far more than ours, which was the first snapshot of TGO. Moreover, and this is qu’interviendra the second mission of this probe, really talented, she will be forced to drop a lander, it embodies, called Schiaparelli, 16 October 2016, for arrival October 19 2016 Mars. Europe wants to test him with his ability to land a craft on the planet, before a rover in a second Martian shipping, most ambitious and scheduled for 2018.
