Spheros on Mars

Kia Ora readers, on our Science we again need to answer a portion of the questions, since Mr Reizinger isn't with us today we have various options we can do. I picked this activity since I learn more every time I read a few writings and realities about the point. So here is the questions and my answer.Questions and Answer: 

1. What Rocket did the Perseverance use to get into space?  

At the time of 7: 50 am Thursday on a United Launch Alliance ATLAS V rocket. It blasted off from Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida. They picked this because Atlas V was one of the biggest rocket available for the interplanetary flight, NASA selected this for the Mars 2020 mission because it has the right to liftoff capability for the weight requirements and destination.This rocket is going to the red planet for the fifth time with Perseverance. 

2. Describe the two vehicles that are being taken to Mars.

The name of the vehicles that was taken in Mars on the day of July 20th 1976 was "Viking One Lander". Mission of this vehicle is is to try finding the evidence of existing life on Martian surface and this lander was a spacecraft .  Other one was called "Trans habitat" 

3. Where does the mission plan to land on mars? What are they looking for?

The Perseverance are landing in Jezero Crater  to the mission. They picked that  because the Scientist believe that the place was flooded with water, and it was the home to an ancient river delta. They also thought the rover will find traces and will left it behind in the rocks. 

4. How will the vehicle land without being damaged? 

The answer for this one is that this vehicle has a parachute that was connected, and it's job was to help land perfectly also make sure the vehicle doesn't have any damaged on it.  Those parachute has something to the side of the vehicle which is a little rockets and that will help go slowly go down,not just putting it in the surface.
