    Do you think there’s life from on Mars?

    There surely exists life on Mars, but not in the way we know it. I mean there are different bacteria and I doubt about green small creatures wandering there.

    Question Are SpaceX helping NASA to get to the moon?

    Orion and Getaway will be produced by ESA according to the contract they signed. Anyway, NASA doesn't have a budget for developing spacecraft and lunar station on their own and they are looking for collaborators.

    How To How Rockets Have Evolved

    Now the two-stage launch vehicle belongs to the light class launch vehicles. Typically, such rockets are designed to launch small satellites weighing up to 600 kg into a near-earth orbit with an altitude of 200 km. For example, Sky Hy which can be used for investigation of the earth's magnetic...

    In its normal state, Betelgeuse is about 100 thousand times brighter than the Sun, but it burns up all its hydrogen reserves, so its life is very short - only up to 10 million years. Given that the state of the red supergiant is the last stage of Betelgeuse's life, I'd take the unusual changes...

    Question Why can't we go under the earth?

    How To What is Jupiter’s Atmosphere Made Of?

    Unlike Earth, Jupiter's atmosphere does not have a mesosphere. Jupiter has no solid surface, and the lowest level of the atmosphere - the troposphere - smoothly passes into the hydrogen ocean. There are no clear boundaries between liquid and gas because the temperature and pressure at this level...
