An independent report on the crash landing of Schiaparelli on Mars indicated the European Space Agency's probe experienced wild rotation during descending.
The first test flight of NASA's Orion capsule, designed to one day carry people to Mars, has been delayed until 2019 at the earliest due to high costs, the US space agency said Friday.
Explorers planning to settle on Mars might be able to turn the planet's red soil into bricks without needing to use an oven or additional ingredients. Instead, they would just need to apply pressure to compact the soil, the equivalent of a blow from a hammer.
A new method has used simulated Martian and lunar dust to 3D print flexible, tough rubber tools.The near lack of an atmosphere and weather on Mars does have some advantages, as does the highly reduced gravity compared to Earth. The 3D printed buildings will not need to withstand strong winds or gravitational pressure, which will add to the longevity of the infrastructure.
