MARS Navigation GPS

Mars at close orbit … is 35 million miles away………

MARS LANDING SAUCER

Take off in a Delta Rocket

Heading to Mars Thru the cold darkness of space

It will take seven months for us to reach Mars.

Engineers adjust flight paths along the way. A small trajectory error can result in a big detour where the rocket would miss the planet entirely.

SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS MAKE MANY DECISIONS DURING THESE MISSIONS.

Mars is in sight…

Preparing for.. de –orbit burn

MARS You have arrived

Establishing an orbit

We must slow down and get ready for landing.

We are going to look for a place to land near the equator so that we can have sunlight We will be using solar power

M ars has two polar ice caps composed of water ice and solid carbon dioxide ("dry ice")

MARS ATMOSPHERE CARBON DIOXIDE NITROGEN ARGON OXYGEN

A supersonic parachute will slow its descent.

SAUCER Robot is inside this balloon

The balloons help the robot land softly

AIR BAGS WITH ROBOTS INSIDE

ROBOT ROLLS OUT ON MARS

Greetings, welcome to planet mars

IT TAKES 15 MINUTES FOR TRANSMISSION SIGNALS TO REACH MARS FROM EARTH. 15 min.

FIRST MARS MISSION: PATHFINDER ROBOT NAMED SOJOURNER FIRST LANDING

MARS SOIL

If you lived on Mars, this would be your backyard

FIRST PICTURE OF MARS SENT BACK BY THE MARS ROVER

First… robot sent to mars 1971 Prop M. …. By the Russians Size of a shoebox

First U.S. ROBOT SOJOURNER

2- ROCKETS WERE LAUNCHED 2003 Each carrying a robot

MARS ROBOTS Spirit Opportunity

Robot “Spirit” next to a 6 th grade girl

This young girl named the robots: Spirit Opportunity Size of a golf cart

She was born in Russia and adopted by an American family when she was two years old.

This is what she wrote that won a contest she had entered.

I used to live in an orphanage. It was cold, dark & lonely. At night, I looked up at the sky to feel better. I dreamed I could fly there. In America, I can make all my dreams come true. Thank-you for the 'Spirit' and the 'Opportunity'

SPIRIT&OPPORTUNITY ROBOTS

PICTURES FROM SPIRIT

MARS ROVER

Engineers study manuals to perform delicate operations

NASA program started 2012

Curiosity… the newest robot sent to mars Weight 1 ton …… Launched 2012 Size of a small car

Saucer Capsule

Curiosity

Robots to Mars 1. Prop M1971 Russians 2. Sojourner Spirit Opportunity Curiosity 2012

FUTURE EXPLORATION OF MARS

This is what mars could look like in 100 years I forgot my Iphone

This is a picture for now… and some day may be a reality

Heading home

Security Checkpoint Make sure you have your boarding passes

Come back soon.. We will be waiting

It will take us 7 months to return back to earth

Re-entering earth’s atmosphere

After we landed … we found we had a visitor on board Take me to your leader….
