Intorno a Marte nel 2021?

After detailed study, Tito and his engineers rejected an early concept of a 501-day direct flight around Mars with a two-person crew during a particularly opportune launch window in 2018, and opted instead for the 580-day flight in 2021 that would fly by Venus and Earth before heading to Mars.

Once there, Cooke said, the Orion crew would have 40 hours to observe the Red Planet from a distance that would make it appear at least as large as the Moon from Earth.

 

.... ma c'è anche non poco scetticismo .... in particolar modo da parte di chi detiene i cordoni della borsa ....

molto difficlie....

direi impossibile per quella data.

più probabile dopo il 2035 e solo per la Nasa.

comunque le tappe fondamentali per l'ente americano e quindi per il nuovo sviluppo dello spazio saranno le elezioni presidenziali fra 2 anni.

Obama è stato in tutte le sue politiche contro all'esplorazione.
