NASA | The Mars Chamber

Показать описание
The Mars chamber is a box--about the size of a refrigerator--that re-creates the temperatures, pressures, and atmosphere of the Martian surface, essentially creating a Mars environment on Earth!

Scientists and engineers use this chamber to test experiments on the Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) instrument suite--a fully functioning chemistry lab about the Curiosity Mars rover.

By re-creating Mars on Earth and using an exact duplicate of SAM, scientists can "pre-run" experiments on SAM to make sure everything will work properly on the Mars rover. Learn more about the Mars chamber by watching this video!

lets just say i agree with what @bentleyboy72 says, and trust me, even if you were to get a 4 year degree (hopefully not in english) you're gonna have to go through another 8 years at least.

Well, if you can't spell college, you shouldn't be allowed to join NASA.
