Artists impression of Mars 96 Orbiter surveying
Mars 96 Orbiter. Artists impression of the Mars 96 Orbiter spacecraft surveying the surface of the red planet. The Orbiter carries 12 instruments for studying the Martian surface and atmosphere, 7 instruments for studying the charged particles (plasma) around the planet which come from the Sun and 3 instruments for astrophysical studies. The Orbiter will also act as a relay station between Earth and modules which have landed on Mars surface as part of the same mission. The Orbiter is due to be launched in November 1996 by the Russians. Arriving at Mars about 300 days later, the Orbiter will operate in orbit for about a year

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artist's impression of the Mars 96 Orbiter, a spacecraft dedicated to surveying the enigmatic surface of the red planet. With its sleek design and cutting-edge technology, this orbiter carries an impressive array of instruments - 12 specifically designed for studying the Martian surface and atmosphere, 7 for analyzing charged particles emanating from our Sun, and another 3 for astrophysical studies. Scheduled for launch in November 1996 by Russian scientists, this ambitious mission aims to unlock the secrets hidden within Mars' mysterious landscape. Upon arrival at Mars approximately 300 days later, the orbiter will gracefully settle into orbit where it will tirelessly operate for about a year. Beyond its scientific capabilities, this remarkable spacecraft also serves as a vital communication link between Earth and modules that have successfully landed on Mars' surface as part of this groundbreaking mission. As we gaze upon this artwork capturing humanity's quest to explore new frontiers, we are reminded of our insatiable curiosity and unwavering determination to unravel the mysteries that lie beyond our home planet. Science Photo Library presents us with yet another awe-inspiring glimpse into mankind's relentless pursuit of knowledge in space exploration. This image encapsulates both hope and excitement as we eagerly await further discoveries from this momentous endeavor.
