NASA’s Mars InSight lander has detected 174 marsquakes, a surprisingly strong local magnetic field and about 10,000 whirlwinds passing over Mars’ surface.
Landing on Mars is notoriously difficult. Only the U.S. has successfully landed a spacecraft on Martian soil, doing it eight times since 1976. NASA’s InSight and Curiosity rovers still operate today. Six other spacecraft are exploring Mars from orbit: three American, two European and one from India. Unlike the two other Mars missions launching this month, China has tightly controlled information about the program — even withholding any name for its rover. National security concerns led the U.S.
The UAE spacecraft Amal, or Hope, which will orbit Mars but not land, is the Arab world’s first interplanetary mission. NASA’s Perseverance rover is up next. “At no other time in our history have we seen anything like what is unfolding with these three unique missions to Mars. Each of them is a science and engineering marvel,” the Space Foundation’s chief executive officer Thomas Zelibor said in an online panel discussion earlier this week.
SPEAKING OF CHINA....REMEMBER TRUMP HAS ASKED FOR THEIR FOREIGN INTERFERENCE FOR OUR AMERICAN ELECTIONS....HE WAS SERIOUS AS HELL...PER THE TICKET HE SOLD HIS BASE.
