Welcome All About Space magazine Issue 113, 2020
It’s all about the Red Planet as we start off 2021 – several missions will arrive at the fourth planet from the Sun this year. In early February the Emirati Hope orbiter will reach Mars, ready to study the Martian atmosphere up close, and the following day China’s Tianwen-1 will arrive, preparing to deploy a rover onto the surface. NASA will be ready for action on 18 February, dropping its new Perseverance rover into Jezero crater to seek signs of extinct life on the dried-out lake and riverbed. Perseverance will also unleash Ingenuity, a little helicopter that will allow humanity to try out flight on the surface of the Red Planet for the very first time – it’ll be our eyes as it scouts for areas of interest, also chartering the driving route for future rovers. Head to page 14 for our full feature on Mars.
Elsewhere in the magazine, our panel of experts answer your space questions, we investigate another mystery of the universe by examining the skies of exoplanet WASP-79b, get up close to the ‘Dog Star’ Sirius – you can find it in Canis Major in the evenings through to mid-spring in the Northern Hemisphere and in July if you’re in the Southern Hemisphere – meet the next exoplanet surveyor and more. Our night sky guide is also packed with the latest advice on observing, plus don’t forget to claim your free sky maps. Enjoy the issue!
