A long road to the Mars mission on the road to launch the pad is about to end.
Twin Excapade (escape and facilitate plasma and dynamic observers) Mars Probeded scheduled launches last October, at first flight of Blue sourceVery large, the part that is available New Glenn rocket.
But NASA has taken two spacecraft In that flight In September, quoting the possibility of improvement in cost progress. That delay actually happened; The new Glenn ended Debuting January 15successfully carried a version of the test of the blue ring of the spacecraft platform to the ground. The company refers to land in the first stage of Glenn on a sea ship as well as failed to try.
the Eskinsada Mission, in the meantime, continues to the State of Limbo, with no publicly informed date of launch.
But it’s cleared now. On Thursday (July 17), the blue source announced that the escapade would launch the second flight of New Glenn, which was drawn before August 15 from Stative Station in Cite Canaveral Space in Florida.
That later than the company originally planned; The blue source looks late spring for flight, known as of the 2, but pushed it back In the last month.
“It’s an exciting mission for New Glenn and Mars Splaceration. The first multi-spacecraft or’s spacecraft one ols for the first time. We will return again. said through x on Thursday.
Escapade is not just the payload flying in NG-2; 320-foot-long (98 meters) New Glenn will also bring a technology demonstration for satellite-communications Company Viasat, according to blue source.
The two escapade reviews are built in the California Lab based on Rocket Lab. They are known as blue and gold, the university of California, Berkeley, whose Space Sciences Laboratory will handle $ 80 million missions for NASA.
The mission “Analyzes how the paristers were at Mars’ magnetic field faldle around the planet, how to bring the air in force and out of the atmosphere, and from the martian atmosphere,” Martian wrote to a Description of Escapade.
“Observations will reveal real-time response to the planet in weather space And how magnne changes Martian for hours, “they added.
