The experience of Mars exploration by the UAE is a source of inspiration and quality

Christopher Edwards, an American space scientist, a member of the Emirates Mars Exploration Team, said that the experience of Mars exploration by the UAE was inspiring and qualitative.

And he thinks his future will be bright, highlighting his personal interest in monitoring developments, all the more so as he has managed to establish himself in the global race to explore the world. Space and to become a member of a global player, through its important projects. Hope ", the first exploration of Arab and Islamic Mars, led by an Emirati team.

The satellite project Khalifa Sat and Dubai Sam 1 and 2, as well as the construction of the world's largest space city, viable model for the application on the red planet, and finally the program of the Emirates astronauts on the treatment from 4 Emiratis to send space from here four years. Mohammed bin Rashid Center for future research.

He explained to the "statement" on the sidelines of the lecture organized by the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Health of Zayed University, entitled "Robots on the surface of Mars", in cooperation with the Mohammed Space Center bin Rashid.

And the Bureau of Advanced Sciences believes that the skills that the astronaut needs to equip are scientific and technological skills, as well as the ability to solve and simplify problems, and to find successful practical solutions, decision making and the spirit of the team.

Edwards said that in recent years, a man has sent a fleet of robotic spacecraft to Mars and that they have been able to make countless scientific discoveries, a finding that Mars is a planet very similar to the Earth.

In his speech, the speaker highlighted the role of robots sent to the surface of Mars to collect and badyze information, transmit them to the space station on Earth, as well as the importance of this process to better understand the components and characteristics of the red planet. Who face the work forces to bring the vehicles to the surface of Mars properly, without any damage.

"On the surface of Mars, many vehicles send information and images to scientists.Some of them have completed their mission after being traumatized, but the majority of them still work well, all the soil components on Mars.

"We have long been able to study rocks of a very similar nature to those of the Sultanate of Oman and the Emirates, which has helped us understand how they are formed and what they carry. of history. "

Edwards, professor of physics and astronomy at the University of North Arizona (USA), is a member of the Emirates Project for Mars Exploration project team, specializing in search for the structure and properties of planets, physical processes and morphology of the planet's surface, focusing on rocky bodies.
