NASA’S<br />
CURIOSITY<br />
ROVER TO<br />
SAMPLE<br />
WATER ON<br />
MARS<br />
NASA scientists have been<br />
searching for liquid water<br />
on mars, and they’ve found<br />
hints. <strong>No</strong>w, they want to<br />
have a closer look at it. NASA<br />
revealed that the Curiosity<br />
rover will be investigating<br />
recurring slope lineae—<br />
the dark narrow streaks on<br />
the above photo—around<br />
Mars’ Gale Crater hoping to<br />
find water.<br />
It will first take a photo<br />
using its mast camera to<br />
make sure that there really<br />
is water. If it does find<br />
water, the machine will<br />
go and get samples. The<br />
agency is expecting to take<br />
photos within a year.<br />
However, finding water<br />
doesn’t mean Curiosity will<br />
find life. As we all know,<br />
Mars’ harsh conditions like<br />
fierce radiation might have<br />
prevented life in the first<br />
place. We may take a look<br />
at this investigation as a<br />
stepping stone for mankind.<br />
By getting results, the<br />
findings Curiosity will collect<br />
may help plan a mission<br />
for finding signs of life. A<br />
small success in this trip may<br />
lead to greater things in the<br />
future.<br />
