TGO is an advanced vessel that will “sniff” of particles from the Martian atmosphere, looking for signs of life. It is the largest and most important part of the Esa Mars expedition, which has been named ExoMars.
The big question in the Esa control room in Darmstadt is now what has happened with Schiaparelli, and the mood among the scientists who have spent years on the project is tense.
Signals from the descent in the Mars atmosphere was picked up by earth-on the earth, but the ultimate signal that the probe has landed according to plan is not to come up. The mood is tense among the researchers in the Esa control room in Darmstadt in Germany.
Now analyze the AUTHORITY a recording of the signals from Schiaparelli made by the spacecraft Mars Express, another vessel that revolves around the red planet. When the recording is being scrutinized, expect the researchers to have a clearer picture of the situation.
Have the probe survived the landing, it will at a later date turn on, and send new signals. (©NTB)
