Ngarava yekutanga yeUnited Arab Emirates (UAE) yeLunar rover yabudirira kusimuka nhasi kubva kuCape Canaveral Space Station muFlorida. Ngarava yeUAE yakaburitswa neroketi reSpaceX Falcon 9 nenguva dza02:38 panguva yeko sechikamu cherwendo rweUAE neJapan kumwedzi. Kana ikabudirira, ongororo iyi ichaita kuti UAE ive nyika yechina kushandisa chitundumuseremusere pamwedzi, mushure meChina, Russia neUnited States.

Basa reUAE neJapan rinosanganisira chikepe chinonzi Hakuto-R (zvichireva "Tsuro Chena") chakavakwa nekambani yeJapan inonzi ispace. Chikepe ichi chinotora mwedzi inoda kusvika mina kuti chisvike kuMwedzi chisati chasvika muAtlas Crater pedyo neMwedzi. Chinobva chaburitsa zvinyoronyoro 10kg rover ine mavhiri mana inonzi Rashid (zvichireva "mutyairi wekurudyi") kuti iongorore pamusoro pemwedzi.

Rover iyi, yakavakwa neMohammed bin Rashid Space Center, ine kamera ine resolution yepamusoro uye kamera yekufananidzira inodziya, zvese izvi zvichadzidza nezvekugadzirwa kwe lunar regolith. Vachatorawo mifananidzo yekufamba kweguruva pamusoro pe lunar, kuongorora matombo e lunar, uye kuongorora mamiriro e plasma pamusoro.

Chinhu chinonakidza nezve rover ndechekuti ichaedza zvinhu zvakasiyana-siyana zvinogona kushandiswa kugadzira mavhiri emwedzi. Zvinhu izvi zvakaiswa muchimiro chezvimedu zvinonamira pamavhiri aRashid kuti zvionekwe kuti ndezvipi zvinganyatsodzivirira kubva kuguruva remwedzi nemamwe mamiriro ekunze akaoma. Chimwe chezvinhu zvakadaro i graphene-based composite yakagadzirwa neYunivhesiti yeCambridge muUK neYunivhesiti yeFree yeBrussels muBelgium.

"Chitubu cheSainzi yeMapuraneti"

Basa reUAE neJapan rinongova rimwe chete munhevedzano yerwendo rwemwedzi rwuri kuitwa kana kuti rwakarongwa parizvino. Muna Nyamavhuvhu, South Korea yakaburitsa chitundumuseremusere chinonzi Danuri (zvichireva kuti "nakidzwa nemwedzi"). Muna Mbudzi, NASA yakaburitsa roketi reArtemis rakatakura kapisiro yeOrion iyo ichazodzosera vatyairi vendege kuMwedzi. Panguva iyi, India, Russia neJapan dziri kuronga kuburitsa ngarava dzisina vanhu muchikamu chekutanga cha2023.

Vatsigiri vekuongorora mapuraneti vanoona Mwedzi senzvimbo yekubuditsa zvinhu zvepanyika kuMars nekune dzimwe nzvimbo. Zvinotarisirwa kuti tsvakurudzo yesainzi icharatidza kana makoroni emwedzi achigona kuzviriritira uye kana zviwanikwa zvemwedzi zvichigona kutsigira mabasa aya. Imwe mukana inogona kukwezva pano paNyika. Nyanzvi dzezvepasi dzinotenda kuti ivhu remwedzi rine huwandu hwakawanda hwehelium-3, isotope inotarisirwa kushandiswa mukubatanidza nuclear.

“Mwedzi ndiwo musimboti wesainzi yemapuraneti,” anodaro nyanzvi yezvepasi rose David Blewett weJohns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory. “Tinogona kudzidza zvinhu zviri pamwedzi zvakaparadzwa pasi pano nekuda kwenzvimbo yazvo inoshanda.” Basa razvino rinoratidzawo kuti makambani ekutengeserana ari kutanga mabasa avo, pane kuita semakambani ehurumende. “Makambani, kusanganisira mazhinji asiri mundege, ari kutanga kuratidza kufarira kwawo,” akawedzera.
