NASA's Seyki Probe Passes Mars
The success of NASA's «Psyche» probe mission has seen it pass close to Mars at a distance of approximately 4,600 kilometers, traveling at a speed exceeding 19,800 km/h. It utilized Mars’ gravity to accelerate without using additional fuel. Stunning images of Mars, including its shock sheath, southern polar ice cap, and the Homans crater, highlight the mission's importance in studying the Red Planet. Following this achievement, the probe is now heading towards asteroid «16 Psyche», which is three times farther from the Sun than Earth. It is expected to reach it in August 2029 to study its composition and magnetic field. Additionally, the laser communication system is undergoing space-based testing for high-speed data transmission.
