China successfully launches first Mars mission

WENCHANG, Hainan, July 23 (Xinhua) -- China launched a Mars probe on Thursday, aiming to complete orbiting, landing and roving in one mission, and taking the first step in its planetary exploration of the solar system.

A Long March-5 rocket, China's largest launch vehicle, carrying the spacecraft with a mass of about 5 tonnes, soared into the sky from the Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site on the coast of southern China's island province of Hainan at 12:41 p.m. (Beijing Time).

About 36 minutes later, the spacecraft, including an orbiter and a rover, was sent into the Earth-Mars transfer orbit, embarking on an almost seven-month journey to the red planet, according to the China National Space Administration (CNSA).

China's first Mars mission is named Tianwen-1, which means Questions to Heaven and comes from a poem written by Qu Yuan (about 340-278 BC), one of the greatest poets of ancient China. The name signifies the Chinese nation's perseverance in pursuing truth and science and exploring nature and the universe, said the CNSA.

Apart from this launch, which is worthy of congrats, I often think what kind of creatures we are.
God gave us this paradise, and want to find places to live, where even oxygen is absent.

these missions are not limited to migration to other planets only but also for controlling natural resources present in such planets after earth resources are overly utilized

Can we bring resources from Mars to earth?

 

[Yaseen1]

scientists may be looking for new type of metal or element in mars which is not present in earth so they develop something new to defeat their competitors,i think they might be thinking of exploring new elements and later bring them back in earth in small quantities to study and carry more research on them

Can we bring resources from Mars to earth?
