Gratuluji kolegum z NASA k uspesnemu startu, transitu i pristani na Marsu! Nemecke Centrum letectvi a kosmonautiky (DLR) ma na palube jeden vedecky experiment: HP3 – Heat Flow and Physical Properties Package

The core component of HP³ is an instrumented, electromechanical 'mole', equipped with an active, and a passive Thermal Measurement Suite (TEM-A and TEM-P), as well as a combined accelerometer and tiltmeter (ACTIL), which uses an internal hammering mechanism to penetrate through the ground. The thermal probes are located on a five-metre long flat ribbon cable known as a ‘Science Tether’, which measures its temperature and gradient through to its maximum length.

DLR by melo v pondeli poslat na obeznou drahu svuj dalsi satelit Eu:CROPIS (Eu je zkratka pro krasnoocko, euglena gracilis).

Eu:CROPIS:Assisted by microorganisms and euglena
During its mission, the Eu:CROPIS satellite is designed to rotate at an altitude of 600 kilometres, initially replicating lunar gravity for a period of six months before simulating Martian gravity for the next six months. During this period, tomato seeds will germinate and produce small cosmic tomatoes under the watchful eye of 16 cameras. Key helpers that enable this growth will also be transported into space: first, an entire colony of microorganisms inhabiting a trickle filter will convert synthetic urine into easily digestible fertilisers for the tomatoes. Second, the single-cell organism euglena will also be on board to protect the hermetic system from excessive ammonia and to deliver oxygen. LED light will be used to provide the day/night rhythm that the euglena and tomato seed require. A pressure tank will replicate the Earth's atmosphere.
