Video: For first time, NASA takes pictures that reveal the possibility of life on Mars

The US space agency, NASA, presented a video that reveals for the first time the possibility of life on Mars.

The video, which was filmed in high quality, clarified the minute details on the surface of the planet, in addition to the crypts that exist on the surface of the Red Planet.

NASA’s Perseverance rover took individual images (approximately 1,118 images) on the surface of Mars, and the team responsible for the trip worked to improve the image, raise its quality and improve its accuracy.

NASA states in a report that this video makes it easier for scientists interested in the developments of Mars to examine the landscape very accurately, as a scene from the ancient Mars River delta appears in the video.

According to research, this river has been brimming with water almost three billion of years ago.

NASA was preparing for the first time in five decades to launch a spacecraft to the moon, in a decisive scientific development that many around the world were waiting for, from the Kennedy Space Center on the coast of Florida, with the rocket carrying the unmanned spacecraft known as Orion.

According to the British newspaper, Daily Mail, the rocket used in NASA’s powerful launch cost US$20 billion and can only be used once, while the launch cost $4 billion, as the unmanned spacecraft orbited the moon for 42 days before returning to earth, where it landed in the ocean.

This launch comes as part of the Artemis program run by NASA, which aims to send astronauts to the moon again. The US agency also wants to test technologies that could lead to landing humans on Mars.

This is considered the largest rocket project launched by NASA since the “Saturn V” project, which led to the landing of the first man on the moon in 1969, knowing that this project lasted from 1967 to 1973.
