Second‚ Curiosity can use a fast relay via the orbiting Mars Odyssey spacecraft. Finally‚ Curiosity can utilize a slow relay to communicate via the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. The scientific missions have focused on whether Mars once harbored flowing water. Specifically‚ the science studies Martian geology to determine

AN INTRODUCTION TO CONIC SECTIONS There exists a certain group of curves called Conic Sections that are conceptually kin in several astonishing ways. Each member of this group has a certain shape‚ and can be classified appropriately: as either a circle‚ an ellipse‚ a parabola‚ or a hyperbola. The term "Conic Section" can be applied to any one of these curves‚ and the study of one curve is not essential to the study of another. However‚ their correlation to each other is one of the more intriguing

Communication Satellites Introduction Communications Satellites have been around since 1958. A communications satellite is a spacecraft that orbits the Earth and relays messages‚ radio‚ telephone and television signals. Stations on the ground‚ called earth stations‚ transmit signals to the satellite‚ which then relays the signal to other earth stations. As a newer form of communications‚ communications satellites are very useful in bringing the people in the world together. Communications between

in 1957. On the twelfth of April in 1961‚ The Soviet Union finally won the race to space when they sent Yuri Gagarin to space in the spacecraft Vostok 1. Prior to the launch however the Soviets sent a prototype of the Vostok 1 with a life sized dummy‚ Ivan Ivanovich‚ and his companion a dummy dog named Zvezdochka. With the success of the dummy launch‚ the spacecraft was deemed fit for a human to travel to

It may be a wordplay steal from the movie‚ “Spaceballs‚” which was written and directed by comedy legend Mel Brooks. In that blockbuster classic‚ the spacecraft had a “Ludicrous Speed.” This allowed it to accelerate and reach speeds of a ludicrous nature. I could see Elon Musk being a big fan of that movie. Tesla and SpaceX make a lot more sense to me now. What does this mean for Nissan and Google? Will

History changed on October 4‚ 1957‚ when the former Soviet Union successfully launched Sputnik I. The world’s first artificial satellite was about the size of a basketball‚ weighed only 183 pounds‚ and took about 98 minutes to orbit the Earth on its elliptical path. That launch ushered in new political‚ military‚ technological‚ and scientific developments. While the Sputnik launch was a single event‚ it marked the start of the space age and the U.S.-U.S.S.R space race. The story begins in 1952
