Self-propelled vehicles take a panoramic view of Mars

NASA has published the first official images captured by the Curiosity autonomous vehicle, images that show the Martian surface in a clear detail to each crystal.

Among them is a surface photo around the location where Curiosity obtained the first sandblast. It is a land blown by the wind called 'rock nest' (Rock Nest) and extends to Sharp Mountain on the horizon.

Daily Mail quoted Bob Deen of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory: "We can see the panorama and every single detail."

NASA's Mars Science Experiment Project is using a £ 2 billion, 6-wheel self-propelled self-propelled vehicle called Curiosity, with 10 scientific instruments to investigate the environmental history of the Gale volcanic region, The place where each discovery has favorable conditions for the life of bacteria. The Curiosity self-propelled vehicle has landed on Mars since August last year for a two-year mission. Now Curiosity will continue to analyze soil samples that contain all the ingredients needed for life.

Scientists have identified sulfur, nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus and carbon in the sedimentary rock that Curiosity drills near an ancient spring in the Yellowknife Bay area in the Gale volcano. They believed that billions of years ago, water flowed from the volcanic rim and formed streams of nearly 1 meter depth.

The Daily Mail summarizes the project scientist John Grotzinger, 'We have found a peaceful and favorable living environment. You can drink this water . ' Michael Meyer, a scientist at NASA's NASA-based Mars discovery program, added: "A fundamental question for this task is whether Mars is a favorable living environment. And From what we know, the answer is yes. '
