Hey friends , Welcome to Science Feed .
NASA will launch a rotorcraft-lander named Dragonfly on Saturn's Natural Satellite ,Titan.
Dragonfly will become first multi rotor vehicle that will fly to multiple place on Titan .
With help of Dragonfly , NASA will investigate the progression of prebiotic chemistry and check habitability of Titan .This mission will be launched in 2026 and completed in 2034 .
“Titan is unlike any other place in the solar system, and Dragonfly is like no other mission. It’s remarkable to think of this rotorcraft flying miles and miles across the organic sand dunes of Saturn’s largest moon, exploring the processes that shape this extraordinary environment. Dragonfly will visit a world filled with a wide variety of organic compounds, which are the building blocks of life and could teach us about the origin of life itself,” said Thomas Zurbuchen, NASA’s associate administrator for Science at the agency’s Headquarters in Washington.
Titan can provide information about how life forms exist on our planet because Titan is similar to our early Earth . Similar to Earth , Titan has nitrogen-based atmosphere .It has rains of methane and other organic materials.
Since Titan's atmosphere is four times denser than Earth.
So, Dragonfly will take this advantage to fly across Titan .
“With the Dragonfly mission, NASA will once again do what no one else can do .Visiting this mysterious ocean world could revolutionize what we know about life in the universe. This cutting-edge mission would have been unthinkable even just a few years ago, but we’re now ready for Dragonfly’s amazing flight,” said NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine.
