Beagle 2 landing on Mars
Beagle 2 probe landing on Mars, computer artwork. Its heat shield is glowing as it falls through the Martian atmosphere. This British probe was carried to Mars by the European Space Agencys Mars Express spacecraft, which was launched in June 2003. Beagle 2 will look for signs of ancient life on Mars, by studying soil samples. It will look for traces of water and residues from organic material. It also carries three cameras, which will provide panoramic views and microscopic studies of rocks. Beagle 2 will be deployed on 19th December 2003, and will land on Mars on 25th December

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of Beagle 2, a British probe, making its daring landing on Mars. The computer artwork showcases the probe's heat shield glowing brightly as it plummets through the Martian atmosphere. Carried by the European Space Agency's Mars Express spacecraft, which was launched in June 2003, Beagle 2 is on a mission to search for signs of ancient life on the red planet. Equipped with advanced technology and scientific instruments, Beagle 2 aims to study soil samples in order to detect traces of water and organic material residues that could indicate past or present existence of life forms. Its three cameras will provide panoramic views and microscopic studies of rocks, offering scientists an unprecedented glimpse into Mars' geological composition. The deployment date for Beagle 2 is set for December 19th, 2003, with its anticipated landing scheduled for Christmas Day - a truly remarkable gift for humanity's quest to understand our neighboring planet. This ambitious endeavor represents a significant milestone in planetary exploration and exobiology research. Science Photo Library presents this extraordinary image as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of knowledge beyond Earth's boundaries. It serves as a reminder that even amidst vast distances and inhospitable environments, our collective curiosity continues to push us towards new frontiers in space exploration.
