  • NASA is testing lander hardware to be used for a mission to Jupiter's moon Europa. It is an "evolution of hardware used on previous NASA lander mission," according to NASA.

    Wow, to think I might see this misson in my lifetime is amazing. I've always wondered what my be under that icy core.

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen landing legs like that, plus the shield thing on the bottom. It definitely seems like a good design (especially if it turns out that Europa‘s covered in large inflatable balls), but I’m curious about whether it’s a unique one. Do many other landers use approaches like this one and I just know less than I thought I did? Or is there some reason why this would need to be different

    It’s great to see this kind of testing

    Scientists have discovered plywood on the surface of Europa! Jk, I wonder if there’s a sample return planned for this mission.

    Sugestão fazer isso em todas as pernas sim ficaria incrível simulando uma forma até em um buraco nunca sabemos as irregularidades enfrentadas

    hmmm I wonder what the gravity coefficient is on Europa.

    • @oberonpanopticon
      @oberonpanopticon Před 6 měsíci +2

      If you mean the gravitational constant, it’s the same as it is everywhere else in the universe. If you mean surface gravity, it’s about 13% of earths, rather similar to our own moon.

    Wow. You could spend months running landing sims. Fun!!

    I assume it's being designed to be able to land in variety of landing conditions. I guess NASA won't have a clean picture of landing spots?

    • @oberonpanopticon

      I think they will because Europa clipper is going to map the entire moon, but it’s only going to have so much detail and things can always go wrong, so it’s best to prepare for every scenario.

    The Planetary Decadal Survey in 2022 said that NASA's next flagship mission should be a Uranus Orbiter. We have not even mapped the surface of Europa up close and the Europa Multi Flyby Spacecraft will not even arrive until 2030. NASA should follow what the National Academy of Sciences Recommended and not the aspirations of a Congressman who has since lost his seat in the House.

    I wonder how well the lander will survive in the Van Allen radiation belt.

  • @josephwarren3498
    @josephwarren3498 Před 6 měsíci

    So Europa's surface is covered by rocks and blocks of wood perfectly formed in geometrics consisting of right angles?

    • @kirowilber9121
      @kirowilber9121 Před 6 měsíci +1

      It's just a general testing of conditions, including sheer faced rocks, It's likely to have a fine landing site, but we know so little about the surface conditions, might as well test some extreme conditions of the feet

    • @budgiefriend

      The round base plate locks the legs when being slightly pressed up into the lander. That's why the ball was squeezed somewhat before yielding enough contra pressure, Neat system.

    Ao invés de ficar procurando vidas ou seja o que for em outros planetas porque não se preocupar com vidas aqui na terra. Gastam milhões e bilhões de dólares com essas porcarias que não servem pra nada ,afinal vidas só aqui na terra e fim de papo.

    What if the rover lands on a vertical slope?
