Washington – Mars can be observed from Earth with the greatest clarity of the last 15 years from 22:00 on Friday, as the orbits of the two planets NASA scientist, Geronimo Villanueva, told Efe
: "Mars approaching the Earth every two years, but by that time, by its orbit, will approach the Earth every two years. much more than at other times and we can see it very bright and taller than usual, "Villanueva, who works at NASA's Goddard Space Center
According to calculations of 39, experts, March [1945900] 7] will be 57.6 million kilometers from Earth next Tuesday, compared with 100 million kilometers of other calendar dates.
However, people will already be able to see since tonight from any point "19659009]" For this, they should turn their eyes to the moon and, to their right, they might find a red spot – orange lighter than normal – Mars – and, next, another
The Earth goes around the sun every year (19659009), the planet Earth, Saturn. "
This land, which will recur in 2033, occurs by" relatively simple "circumstances, and Mars is every second, so the two planets align and are closer than usual. 19659009] However, the orbit of Mars is "very original", that is to say, there are times when it is farthest Sun and others closer, in comparison [19659009] Thus, the orbit of the red planet, one of the most irregular of the solar system, and that of the Earth align with the Sun synchronously every 15 years.
This opportunity represents a great opportunity for Hubble Space Telescope researchers, which operates "at its peak" since its launch in 1990.
"Hubble allows us to observe the solar system and come out for a long time ; is a very comprehensive information platform that helps us understand, for example, how climates are changing on different planets, "says Villanueva.
In the case of Mars, Hubble captured an image last week where the planet
This knowledge is "very important" for the US space agency, which relies on a series of robots on the surface of Mars to analyze the
NASA has indeed recently lost contact with the exploratory robot "Opportunity", which uses solar panels as a source of energy.
Because of this dust storm documented by Hubble, "Opportunity" is not receiving light from the sun needed to work and go into hibernation until its panels are clean and the Martian atmosphere is more open.
One of the biggest objectives of all these researches , no doubt, is the # 39, arrival of the man on Mars.
When the astronaut arrived on Mars, the two planets would not be aligned, so it would take two hours for the spacecraft to arrive,
In addition to the six months back, the NASA scientist recalled that it would be necessary to build a launch pad on Mars.
"We are working so that in a period of 10 to 20 years, we can send the first man or the first woman to Mars," said Villanueva
