To push it further out into the solar system, like the moon, asteroids and eventually to Mars, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) announced plans on Wednesday on a giant rocket.
The giant rocket will be the backbone of human space flight program for decades to come. The rocket that has been completed it will become a powerful rocket to rise from the bonds of gravity. Similarly, as reported by the New York Times, Monday (24/10/2011).
"We invest in technology to stay and work in space, and sets the stage to visit the asteroids and Mars," said NASA's administration, Maj. The gene. Charles F. Bolden Jr., during a press conference in Washington.
Two years ago, NASA hopes to build a bigger rocket that will carry astronauts back to the moon and set up a post there. With the money that is more limited, the rate of progress will be much slower than NASA's Apollo heyday in the 1960s.
William H. Gertenmaier, Associate Administrator for Human Exploration, for NASA, they can expect $ 3 billion a year for the business, or a total of about $ 18 billion over six years.
The funds will be sufficient to resolve a rocket that can lift 70 metric tons into orbit. The design will be evolved to a larger version so it can lift up to 130 metric tons
