The aircraft is not only adapted to the characteristics of the terrain on Mercury, but also a variety of instruments to determine the characteristics of the elements that exist on earth.

4. The journey to Mars

3. Earth from Saturn
 

This image taken by the Cassini spacecraft cameras wide-angle on 15 September 2006, at a distance of 1.3 million kilometers from Saturn and about 930 million miles from Earth. Moon Enceladus also teritangkap camera left wrapped in a bluish tint and ice particles in Saturn's E ring

2. First of Mars

With such a small size, Carl Sagan, Voyager advocate commented: "A lonely speckle in the eye that are wrapped by the breadth of the universe is dark. To me, it underscores our responsibility in maintaining and 'stroking' the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known, a friendly and compassionate.
