Shipwrecks Of MarsSydney, Australia (SPX) Aug 26, 2010 Mars exploration is preparing for another surge. NASA and the European Space Agency are pooling their resources for a powerful new set of missions later this decade, and next year, we will see the launch of NASA's Mars Science Laboratory rover, Russia's Phobos-Grunt mission, and China's Yinghuo orbiter. With several active missions currently exploring Mars, we've taken our attention away from some of the unsolved mysteries of the past. Mars remains the most dangerous place in deep space for robot ... read more |
