14 Mar 2013 the Russian and European space agencies signed an agreement that turned a large-scale European program for the study of Mars in a joint project. The program is divided into two phases, the implementation of which is planned for 2016 and 2018. The approach of the first date gives reason to discuss the details of the mission "ExoMars-2016" (ExoMars 2016).
In the spring of this year started the mission "ExoMars-2016" in which Mars went spacecraft Schiaparelli and the Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO). Recall, TGO represents the Orbiter, which is designed to study certain features of the atmosphere of Mars.
The separation of the two spacecraft occurred on October 16. 19 Oct Schiaparelli entered the atmosphere of Mars. The first stage of the process of descent was according to calculations. Approximately 50 seconds before landing the lander has stopped transmitting and is simply gone from sight scientists. A few days, the mission team tried to detect the device, but in the end admitted that Schiaparelli, most likely, crashed while landing. The photos below show the proposed location of the accident.
As can be seen on an early photo of any objects not, but at fresh, which was made by orbital station Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter is visible over the black dot. Scientists believe that this is the Schiaparelli. The team continues to analyze the data transmitted by the module through the Trace Gas Orbiter to determine the cause of the accident.
Accident Schiaparelli is well demonstrated by the fact that even our nearest planet in our solar system is actually incredibly far for humanity's current level of development. Schiaparelli created in order to work planting. The accident showed that the technology is not sufficiently reliable.
Recall that in the framework of the second phase of the mission "ExoMars", the planet will send the ExoMars Rover. Let's hope that his landing will be successful.
