Marsmission: Härtetest für die Suche nach Leben

Ab 2030 soll der ESA-Rover Rosalind Franklin auf dem Mars nach Überresten von Leben suchen. Das MPS schickt ein Messinstrument mit auf die Reise. Das Instrument bestimmt unter anderem eine entscheidende Eigenschaft organischer Moleküle: ihre Chiralität. Sie verrät, ob die Moleküle je Teil eines lebenden Organismus waren. Als Vorbereitung haben Forschende nun erstmals nach diesem Prinzip Meteoritenproben erfolgreich auf zwei besonders aussagekräftige chemische Verbindungen untersucht. Die Messungen finden zudem Hinweise darauf, dass Meteorite beim Sturzflug durch die Erdatmosphäre Reste fossiler Brennstoffe „einsammeln“.

🚀 So here's your chance to relive the nostalgic days of 1990 with a book that took longer to write than it took to code a Mars rover. 📚 And don't worry, the author generously provides the source code for those who still enjoy debugging on their trusty #MSDOS machine. 😂

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🪐🛠️ For 13 years, #NASA’s #Curiosity #rover has survived #Mars thanks to clever fixes by #JPL engineers, like driving backward to protect wheels from sharp boulders, running #computers on less than 1% of original memory, and saving #energy as its #nuclear power source fades.

Good Morning, all,

excuse my curiosity, but have you ever had trouble freeing a stuck drill bit?

Now imagine if your drill is > 300 million km distant:

And look what crawled out from under that Martian rock...

#SpoilerAlert

Nothing.
