After NASA's Perseverance rover successfully landed on the surface of Mars last Thursday, we are constantly receiving new updates.

The historic event can be followed live on the NASA website. The red planet will be very crowded from now on.

As a result of the lessons learned, NASA has developed new materials with fire safety in mind. For example, the insulation around cables is made with a special coating so fire resistant that it cannot burn even in a pure oxygen environment.

Although most people think that astronauts are always in space, they actually only spend a small part of their careers outside.

Skylab was the first American space station. In addition, the astronauts on board carried out 270 experiments in biomedical and life sciences, Earth astronomy, and materials processing.

In 400 BC, Archytas of Tarentum, a Greek philosopher, invented the first self-propelled flying machine of antiquity.

During the month of July, we witnessed the launch of no less than 3 Martian exploration missions: the United Emirates mission, Mars Hope; the China Tianwen-1 mission; and the US mission Perseverance.

This will be the robots that will explore from the red planet and the moons of Jupiter to the ends of the universe.
