Давайте ближе к Любопытству!

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity acquired this image using its Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI), located on the turret at the end of the rover's robotic arm, on November 30, 2013, Sol 469 of the Mars Science Laboratory Mission, at 23:16:39 UTC.

When this image was obtained, the focus motor count position was 12582. This number indicates the internal position of the MAHLI lens at the time the image was acquired. This count also tells whether the dust cover was open or closed. Values between 0 and 6000 mean the dust cover was closed; values between 12500 and 16000 occur when the cover is open. For close-up images, the motor count can in some cases be used to estimate the distance between the MAHLI lens and target. For example, in-focus images obtained with the dust cover open for which the lens was 2.5 cm from the target have a motor count near 15270. If the lens is 5 cm from the target, the motor count is near 14360; if 7 cm, 13980; 10 cm, 13635; 15 cm, 13325; 20 cm, 13155; 25 cm, 13050; 30 cm, 12970. These correspond to image scales, in micrometers per pixel, of about 16, 25, 32, 42, 60, 77, 95, and 113.

Most images acquired by MAHLI in daylight use the sun as an illumination source. However, in some cases, MAHLI's two groups of white light LEDs and one group of longwave ultraviolet (UV) LEDs might be used to illuminate targets. When Curiosity acquired this image, the group 1 white light LEDs were off, the group 2 white light LEDs were off, and the ultraviolet (UV) LEDS were off.

Марсоход NASA обнаружил в высохшем озере на Марсе следы микроорганизмов, надеются ученые

Не следы, а только признаки того, что МОГЛИ жить! Что, как бы, не совсем новость...

Щас....

В очередной раз установили что было там тепло и мокро... 3,6 млрд лет тому назад...

И с тех пор в это место не попал ни один метеорит.

Еще про радиацию любопытная статья опубликована. Не так уж с ней все страшно.

A mission consisting of a 180-day cruise to Mars, a 500-day stay on the Red Planet and a 180-day return flight to Earth would expose astronauts to a cumulative radiation dose of about 1.01 sieverts.

The European Space Agency generally limits its astronauts to a total career radiation dose of 1 sievert, which is associated with a 5-percent increase in lifetime fatal cancer risk.

RAD results suggest that microbial life is unlikely to exist right at the Martian surface. These measurements do tell us that we think it could be viable to find signs of possible extant or past life as shallow as 1 meter deep.

ykpoi, это огромная доза. В два раза больше чем нужно для гарантированного заболевания лучевой болезнью.

При разовом облучении -- да, будет ЛБ в легкой степени.
А вот если растянуть на три года, то можно и не заметить.
И еще нормальная логика говорит, что уж на Марсе-то точно можно зарыться на пару метров в грунт, и от вашего зиверта останется меньше половины.

Но наружу то придётся всё равно выходить!

В общей сложности, за год жизни на Красной планете такой путешественник накопит около 15 рентген ионизирующего излучения, что в 300 раз больше предельной годовой дозы для работников атомной промышленности. Это сильно ограничивает время пребывания возможных путешественников на поверхности Красной планеты, которые вряд ли смогут провести там больше 500 дней без риска для здоровья.

:|  И, надо будет найти какое-то решение для оранжерей. А как быть с терраформингом планеты? :oops:
