NASA’s two ESCAPADE spacecraft successfully performed two maneuvers near Earth, using its gravity to alter their course and gain speed. Each spacecraft fired its engine for about nine minutes to set course for Mars. The journey will take about ten months, with both spacecraft expected to arrive in September 2027 and begin scientific operations in June 2028. They will then observe the planet simultaneously from two different orbits. The mission aims to study how solar winds affect Mars’s environment and contribute to the loss of parts of its atmosphere. The maneuvers also give greater flexibility in choosing launch times for missions to Mars.
