The Mars Science Laboratory mission's Curiosity rover, the most technologically advanced rover ever built, landed in Mars' Gale Crater the evening of August 5, 2012
Curiosity's mission is to determine whether the Red Planet ever was, or is, habitable to microbial life. The rover, which is about the size of a MINI Cooper, is equipped with 17 cameras and a robotic arm containing a suite of specialized laboratory-like tools and instruments. I chose this because in my opinion this was the most interesting.]]> 2020-10-30 17:35:54 UTC https://padlet.com/bmsnyder/3ff87rnjelcjwvbl/wish/877305614 Ariana- cloudsat hcpsvejzoviam https://padlet.com/bmsnyder/3ff87rnjelcjwvbl/wish/877316544 About the mission
It launched on April 28, 2006 and it's still in space. It launched in Vandenburg Air Force Base, California. It revaled how often the clouds above Earth rain and snow. It learned how clouds heat and cool the atmosphere. It provided the first quantitive estimate of snowfall. Its currents location is in Earth orbit 438 miles above Earth's surface.]]> 2020-10-30 17:38:37 UTC https://padlet.com/bmsnyder/3ff87rnjelcjwvbl/wish/877316544 Shriya- Galaxy Evolution Explorer hcpsupadhyesp https://padlet.com/bmsnyder/3ff87rnjelcjwvbl/wish/877318096 This mission was for observing the universe in ultraviolet rays to measure the star formation in the universe.
