Corsair is here welcome to my new video. NASA and ESA are planning an ambitious mission to return samples of Mars to the Earth for the first time. While previous missions to Mars have involved the use of compact laboratory equipment to analyze the content of materials collected on the Red Planet, nothing can compare to the level of details such samples could be put under if scientists were to have direct access to them here on Earth. Actually fetching samples directly from Mars however is no easy task, especially given the number of steps involved and the possibility for something to go wrong at any stage of the mission. As things stand, the plan will be to first have the upcoming Mars 2020 rover collect samples of rocks and soil on the Martian surface, then package them up in small sealed metal tubes. A second rover built by ESA will then be sent to the Red Planet where it will trundle across the surface and gather up these sample caches before taking them to a waiting US rocket. The rocket will blast the samples up into space where a robotic spacecraft will collect them. After returning to Earth, it will release the samples in a capsule that will land in the Utah desert. One of the most important aspects of the mission will be to ensure that the samples don’t contaminate our own planet with any alien parasites like something out of The X-Files. The question is why? Did they already found something there? Why isolating ? what kind of contamination could do martian sample? The answer is yes they knew something lives down there and keep hiding it from the public .
