Space exploration, a long-awaited dream – unravel the mysteries of outer space and listen to the mysteries of the universe. But just after NASA scientists happily welcomed the precious "extraterrestrial gift" from afar, they encountered an unimaginable difficulty, which is really ridiculous!
The long journey of 6.4 billion kilometers is just for this alien rock Human beings are like a curious baby, always wanting to explore everything unknown around them. We are always curious and eager to explore all the unsolved mysteries. The unreachable realm of outer space is undoubtedly an incomparably attractive object for scientists to explore. But how can the curiosity be relieved by looking through a telescope alone? Of course, they want to see it for themselves, to touch the unsolved mystery for themselves.
NASA is such a group of children full of curiosity and exploration spirit, they came up with an ingenious idea: simply bring extraterrestrial material back to Earth! So there is the Osiris-REx probe, known as the "Interstellar Gold Digger", which finally retrieved samples of original material outside the Earth after seven years of flight, creating a milestone in the history of human exploration.
Don't underestimate this rock, it took 6.4 billion kilometers to get it back! By comparison, the farthest range of the first human landing on the moon was only 380,000 kilometers. Along the way, the probe simply flew over countless nebulae and galaxies, shuttled through the vast universe, and finally retrieved this priceless treasure.
The probe that retrieved the "alien rock" was scarred, and it was like a tough battle. Not only is the voyage long, but even the sampling process is quite thrilling. The probe had to fly by the target asteroid at an alarming speed of proximity, rolling up the rocky dust on the ground like lightning. In order to ensure the success of the sampling, the probe did not hesitate to be injured, and a large amount of precious "alien dust" was glued to the fuselage.
Finally ready for a celebration feast with all the firepower? But just as scientists were in full swing about dismantling the sealed cabin containing the samples and carefully examining the first batch of proto-material retrieved from outer space in human history, a big problem suddenly came. Unexpectedly, it was discovered that the sampler containing the precious "stardust" had malfunctioned and could not be opened! The scientist, who had thought that he would be able to take out the sample easily, burst into tears and laughed.
Good guys, they can't even open the lid, is this batch of alien "garbage" coming from afar doomed to the fate of being given a cold shoulder? For a while, NASA researchers were helpless and could only ponder and meditate to find a solution. After all, this is about mankind's first exploration of extraterrestrial matter, and even a speck of dust is precious, how can it be let go like a swallowed date?
Logos is a guy who doesn't understand the amorous style, and he always thinks it's rational to the point of being cold. But let's think about it in another interesting way: NASA's friends have brought alien gifts home, but they can't unpack them! Then they must be very anxious now, and their curiosity has been infinitely magnified, right? Can you imagine how aggrieved they are at the moment? I see, they should be like little pot friends who receive gifts for the holidays, eyeing that cardboard box and can't wait to open it.
Brute force alone won't solve the problem. NASA is truly the embodiment of wisdom, and they are painstakingly researching countermeasures in the hope of coming up with a solution that will not harm these hard-won alien samples and rescue them from their packaging. There is no doubt that this cosmic dust, 300 million kilometers away, is crucial to solving the mystery of the formation of the solar system. They are living fossils from the birth of the solar system, revealing what kind of magical matter was contained in that chaos.
We can hope that if we can successfully unlock this "treasure box", it will definitely bring a new perspective to humanity's understanding of its own origins. Who knows? Maybe in those stardusts, there are hidden clues to the mystery of the origin of life. In this way, does NASA also hope to unravel the mystery of the "treasure" in the box as soon as possible?
The "terrifying asteroid" roaring by But let's not forget that just as NASA scientists are trying to unveil the "alien rock", an asteroid called "Apophis" is approaching the Earth. Don't be intimidated by its name, it's not a messenger of peace. The asteroid is said to be expected to approach Earth in April 2029, when it may be only 32,000 kilometers away, which is frighteningly close. Don't underestimate its size, although it is only 340 meters wide, but if it really hits the earth, wow, it will really shoot the earth!
That being said, we don't have to worry about it. After all, scientists said after the study of the spacecraft probe that the possibility of this "cannonball" eventually hitting the Earth is very small. Despite this, NASA scientists have sent the Osiris-REx probe to "keep an eye on the problem" in order to prevent it from happening. This guy is not "Taiping 91", it also uses the gravitational pull of the earth to fly by the Apophis asteroid at close range to explore its structure and habits.
If all goes well by then, Osiris-REx could even try to "fire a cannonball" at the Apophis asteroid. It will use its thrusters to raise a storm on the surface of the asteroid, kicking up countless dust and rocks, hoping to get a glimpse of the asteroid's inner workings. In this process, do you have the feeling of watching the excitement? It's like a child throwing a stone to stir up a puddle of muddy water, but the contents can be tossed at a glance.
Where to find the origin of life? See through the red dust to know the "treasure" Let's go back to the original puzzle: NASA retrieved extraterrestrial samples, isn't that good, let's continue to explore this intriguing topic. NASA scientists have not yet been able to extract precious samples of alien rocks, but they are clearly not going to give up. After all, human beings' desire to explore the mysteries of the universe is like a lingering nightmare, forever haunting the depths of the heart.
We've all heard about the formation of the solar system in class and on TV shows. Something like this: More than 14 billion years ago, a swirling cloud of dust began to coalesce and contract, gradually warming up in the center, and finally ignited into a burning star, the Sun. The surrounding material orbits the Sun and gradually coalesces into planets under the action of centrifugal force.
Doesn't that sound simple? Like a romantic space dream, you have a galaxy as brilliant as it is today. But the truth is much more than that, the formation of stars and planets is intricate and full of unsolved mysteries. How many unknown mysteries are contained in the origin of the solar system, and how much do we know?
Take, for example, the asteroid Bennu. It is not a single piece of hard rock, but a myriad of small stones loosely glued together. Imagine that each stone is like a living fossil, carrying the original appearance of the solar system at the beginning of its existence, witnessing the whole process of the gradual birth of stars and planets. If we can study these "fossils" ourselves, we may be able to reconstruct the shape of the universe like a jigsaw puzzle.
What's more, there may be clues related to the origin of life in these asteroid rocks! After all, how life was gradually conceived in the silence of space has always been the ultimate mystery that human beings cannot answer. Throughout the ages, countless scientists have dreamed of deciphering this mystery.
And now, there is such a batch of priceless extraterrestrial material right under NASA's nose. If you unwrap it a little, you may be able to get a glimpse of the opportunity for life to be born. For scientists, this hard-won treasure is like a Pandora's box of blessings and misfortunes when opened in a jar, full of unknowns and surprises!
Therefore, I believe that NASA scientists must have racked their brains and tried everything they could. They must have been eager to open this treasure box containing alien earth, and even a peek into a corner would be enough to make them ecstatic.
I can almost imagine their anxious expressions at the moment: their brows furrowed, their faces solemn. But at the moment when the atmosphere was solemn, suddenly a bold young man asked loudly: "Hey, what if we really can't take this jar? This scene is very much like our authoritative experts on incurable diseases in our daily life.
For fear of missing the opportunity, NASA scientists must be exhausted. They must be racking their brains, devouting new solutions, looking for possible breakthroughs. Along the way, they may be anxious about failure, but at the same time, they have hope and longing, and they will not give up any possibility. After all, everyone knows that as long as this "treasure box" can be successfully opened, it is equivalent to opening a window to the mysteries of the solar system, and it is possible to reveal the ultimate mystery of the origin of life.
So, let's cheer for the NASA scientists, and may they soon be able to overcome the difficulties and open a new door to the mysteries of the universe by opening the sealed chamber containing extraterrestrial matter. At that time, mankind's understanding of the origin of life will surely reach a new level. Perhaps, we can even find the root of the conception of life and uncover the highest meaning of the universe!
Undoubtedly, unraveling this mystery will not be an easy task. But looking at the vastness of the universe, how has human curiosity and the desire to explore ever been extinguished? As we can see today, NASA scientists have overcome all obstacles and endured countless hardships to unravel this last mystery. Where there is a will, there will be a way, and applause and praise will follow!
