The new system launch spacecraft SLS will make a breakthrough in the study of the vast expanses of the galaxy. Fresh release will mark the beginning of 1 large Martian expedition.
NASA said that a thorough analysis of the latest space systems successfully ended. SLS system will deliver astronauts and cargo beyond earth orbit, asteroids or even on Mars. New development, by assumption specialists, will mark the beginning of 1 Martian expedition.
"We are on the right track, research can help us by means of the human and scientific aspects to explore space, this breakthrough will lead us to Mars. We firmly believe in the idea of creating a booster and other spare systems, which will lead us on this path," said the head of NASA, Charles Bolden.
For the first test flight of the SLS will be involved booster small load weighing 70 tons and missile heavy load total weight is 143 tons. Followers of NASA tell us that own the most powerful configuration, SLS will provide unprecedented bearing capacity of 130 metric tons, which will allow the mission to further advance in our solar system, including areas such as asteroids.
Note that the price of the 70-ton rocket is more than $ 7 billion of its run, as it became known, is planned to be done not later than November 2018. "We would like to stick to this date, and to prove that they are ready to finish the job in the announced deadline", said the assistant chief of NASA Robert Lightfoot. In his opinion, this program is quite ambitious temper". He also said that the test hardware and software underlying the project has already been successfully produced. "After painstaking research, we have come at this point to the value of funding and availability date, which will keep us on the path to sending humans to Mars in the 2030s years - and we're going to stand behind this commitment," concluded adept NASA.
