or W (wrong).
At some stage, we’ll need to find a new home. That’s what Stephen Hawking
believed anyway. The famous scientist warned that, mainly because of
global warming, humans will need to leave Earth within 600 years! Other
experts worry about wars, food resources and overpopulation, but the
question remains: where can we move to?
Wherever we move, we’ll need oxygen, water and a suitable temperature to
survive. Let’s start with our next-door neighbours: Venus and Mars. Venus
has an average temperature of 464°C, which is far too hot, but Mars’
average temperature of -63°C is similar to conditions in the Antarctic. Also,
Mars has some water – most of it underground ice. It’s not ideal, but it seems
like Mars is the best option we’ve got.
However, we don’t really know much about the ‘Red Planet’ - and that’s
where Curiosity comes in. Designed by NASA, Curiosity is a rover (a space
exploration vehicle) which explores an area of Mars called the Gale Crater. It
has six large wheels and can move up to 200 metres a day. Also, it uses 17
cameras to monitor climatic conditions, and look for things of interest.
Curiosity has various tools to collect and analyse rock and soil samples. For
example, when it comes across an interesting rock, it can drill a small hole in
it, use a laser to cut off a small piece of it, and then analyse it in a mini-lab
inside the rover. Then, it can send the data back to scientists on Earth.
Curiosity started exploring Mars in August 2012. At first, it was a two-year
mission – NASA didn’t expect the robot to survive for so long! But despite
some damage to its wheels, Curiosity is still working perfectly, and NASA
has no plans to end its mission. At some point in the near future, it’s likely
1 Mars is more suitable than other planets for human life.
2 Curiosity is a space vehicle which moves at fast speeds.
3 Curiosity is able to examine samples by itself.
4 Curiosity can cut things with its robotic arm.
5 Curiosity will continue working until it breaks down.
