ExoMars TGO spacecraft at Mars, artwork C016 / 6391

ExoMars TGO spacecraft at Mars, artwork. The Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) is under development by the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Russian Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos) as part of the ESAs ExoMars mission. This robotic orbiter-carrier would be launched in January 2016 and reach Mars in October of that year. On board would be the ExoMars EDM stationary lander, which would prepare for the later (2018) ExoMars lander rover. The TGO orbiter would remain in orbit, mapping Mars for sources of methane and other gases

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning artwork captures the ExoMars TGO spacecraft in orbit around Mars, showcasing the remarkable technological advancements of our time. Developed jointly by the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Russian Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos), this unmanned spacecraft is a crucial part of the ambitious ExoMars mission. Launched in January 2016, after an arduous journey, it finally arrived at its destination in October of that same year. On board lies the ExoMars EDM stationary lander, which serves as a precursor for future missions such as the ExoMars lander rover scheduled for 2018. While its counterparts explore Martian terrain, this robotic orbiter-carrier remains diligently in orbit around Mars. Equipped with advanced sensors and cutting-edge technology, its primary objective is to map Mars for traces of methane and other gases. This critical data will provide invaluable insights into potential sources of these gases on our neighboring planet. The image showcases futuristic solar panels adorning the spacecraft's surface, harnessing energy from our sun to power its scientific endeavors. It symbolizes humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and exploration beyond Earth's boundaries. As we venture further into space during this 21st century era of spaceflight and planetary science, machines like TGO play an instrumental role in unraveling mysteries about distant worlds like Mars. With each new discovery made possible by these technological marvels, we inch closer to understanding our place within the vastness of our solar system.
