The “Hera” mission of the European Environment Agency begins with a happy start. The probe used in the display helps Planets. Dabei im Fokus: Asteroiden, de Leben auf der Erde auslöschen könnten.

The Abwehr van Gefahren from all over the world will go: The “Hera” mission of the European Space Agency ESA for the Ablenkung of Asteroids has all started. These images can be seen live in the Raketenstart in the ESA Kontrollzentrum in Darmstadt. The probe that was not used was the attack of the probe “Dart” for two years on the Asteroids Dimorphos hat. The Ergebnisse can help, the Erde can be a ruling Asteroideneinschlägen zu schützen.

“Einen Schritt zur planetaren Verteidigung”, said ESA General Director Josef Aschbacher de Mission. The control center’s director, Rolf Densing, said: “It is one of the first things in the history of humanity that will leave the planet.” Laut Aschbacher knew science after the time of the small asteroids, which in the next three generations could have a very large impact on the Erde failed.

“Hera”, who has found a Greek Göttin, has put into service a Falcon-9 rocket from the private SpaceX space shuttle from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The probe is being developed and installed in Bremen at Raumfahrtunternehmen OHB. Die Instrumente an Bord kommen von verschiedenen Unternehmen.

Deutschland leistet höchsten Beitrag

“Hera” appeared on Mars more than two years in December 2026 and in the future: Dimorphos, the smaller parts of the Doppel Asteroids. Vom Kontrollzentrum in Darmstadt with “Hera” gesteuert. Deutschland is a larger tax amount for a mission of 383 million euros.

The probe has different camera and laser- and radar-based messaging systems. “Hera” is an answer to the question of who found the 150 meter long asteroid Dimorphos. And anyway, the Bahn brought wurde – if one of the collisions put an asteroid on an asteroid, something would be more likely to happen.

Before a year, the US NASA Space Agency’s probe “Dart” landed a direct hit on the asteroid. Klar ist laut Nasa: The Asteroid will be launched, or the Umlaufbahn is one of the larger Asteroids Didymos that has another. Esa-Chef Aschbacher ergänzte, dass beim Einschlag Material herausgeschleudert wurde.

Aber Bisher is unclear: Who is the Crater? Or is the Asteroid completely distorted? Who is schwer? Is it now one of the best of the Trümmern or perhaps one of the core festivals that is a Schicht op Felsbrocken umgeben? Everything “Hera” says will get you a 120 million mile ride.

Weitere Missionen in Planung

Have “Hera” emerge from the Asteroids as one of the other creatures. Then the Token songs “Juventas” and “Milani” are neither a thing of Manöver anschließen: auf Dimorphos countries. The Anziehung des Brocken is very schwach ist, wird erwartet, that “Milani” dabei morefach whoever jumps away.

ESA chief Aschbacher considered “Hera” to be “a very important mission”. If you have found a first confirmation, the planets are an asteroid that is distorted. Once this is the case, man has become an asteroid, while other human objects have been affected during the war.

Large Asteroids can collapse conquered Wirkungen. So a hit for beef represented 66 million years as main responsibility for the Dinosaurier and many other Lebewesen. In 2013, one of the 20-meter larger asteroid exploded above the megacity of Chelyabinsk. During the Druckwelle cattle 1,500 people lost their lives, mostly due to split windows.

“Hera” has been designed and built in four years now. Die Sonde soll auch Vorbild became für “Ramses” (“Fast Apophis mission for space safety”). This probe arrived at the Vorbeiflug in 2029 with the Asteroid Apophis and exited.

Der Brocken with a size of beef 375 meters will be delivered after Esa-Angaben on April 13, 2029, the last meal of the future – in an entfernung of now 32,000 kilometers. Zum Vergleich: Der Mond ist durchschnittlich 384.400 Kilometer entfernt, also more than that.
