...wide when packed for flight, but on the ground it will open like a flower and deploy an impressive array of equipment. Among the instruments are a drill capable of digging 5 ft. below the surface, 12 ovens that can heat samples to some 1,600ºF to generate carbon dioxide and a mass spectrometer to identify carbon isotopes, along with other elements. The lander can also measure ultraviolet radiation, temperature and atmospheric pressure, all variables that play a key role in biology. "If there is one mission capable of detecting past and present life, it will be ours," says planetary...
...wide when packed for flight, but on the ground it will open like a flower and deploy an impressive array of equipment. Among the instruments are a drill capable of digging 1.5 m below the surface, 12 ovens that can heat samples to some 870?C to generate carbon dioxide and a mass spectrometer to identify carbon isotopes, along with other elements. The lander can also measure ultraviolet radiation, temperature and atmospheric pressure, all variables that play a key role in biology. "If there is one mission capable of detecting past and present life, it will be ours," says planetary scientist...
...this time around, Harvard’s team, which in January was carbon copied on a letter from the mayor to the Turnpike Authority protesting the auction, knew that City Hall would oppose the sale even before they made a bid. As the cash-strapped Turnpike Authority pushed ahead, Harvard eagerly followed...
