Planet Mars it is, as you already know very well, the first planet in our solar system to which those from NASA will send astronauts, a very complex plan of the space agency being in full swing. The planet Mars is very far from the Earth, and before the first humans are sent there, those from NASA will send other robots to analyze the surface, but also to test a new very advanced communication system that will use
Planet Mars is at such a great distance from Earth that those from NASA want to use a laser communication system to be able to maintain contact with the astronauts who will land there after 2030. NASA is going to build a very large antenna in California to be able to maintain active communications with the astronauts who will arrive on the planet Mars, the technology going to replace the current ones that are based on radio waves and that's all.
Planet Mars: INCREDIBLE News from NASA for Mankind
Planet Mars it will have this laser technology used for computers because it allows the transmission of information much faster, but also in much larger quantities than in the case of radio waves. According to those from NASA, the amount of data that can be transmitted from the planet Mars to Earth will increase 10 times after the implementation of laser technology, and this should also allow the transmission of high-resolution images from the surface.
“Lasers can increase your data rate from Mars by about 10 times what you get from radio. Our hope is that providing a platform for optical communications will encourage other space explorers to experiment with lasers on future missions. This is the first time anyone has achieved one-way laser communication over planetary distances.”
Planet Mars this laser communication technology will be used only after NASA tests it with the rest of the ships that are now moving through outer space, and the construction of the first antenna is only at the beginning. It will be a few years before NASA manages to have the entire project ready for use with astronauts traveling through outer space, and before use on the planet Mars, it will certainly be used for communications with people on the Moon.
Planet Mars it is NASA's goal to get the first astronauts there sometime around 2033, or maybe even later, depending on how it can fulfill its current projects needed to send people there.
