The Secret Landings on Mars

  • After the United States first put a man on the Moon and the Soviet Union landed a rover that could freely move across its surface, the USSR’s next goal would be more ambitious: to finally touch down on Mars.
    The Soviets had been developing a space program to send a rover to Mars since 1960. But it wasn’t until the launch of Mars 2 in 1971 that they were close to achieving their objective. However, the rover crashed on the planet after a landing malfunction.
    The mission was shortly followed by Mars 3, which completed its goal of becoming the first spacecraft to land on the red planet and capture footage of its rocky surface.
    Minutes after its activation, the rover began transmitting data back to Earth. But 14 seconds after it started moving, the first man-made object to reach Mars lost signal.
    Before going black, the rover transmitted a fuzzy black and white image. It then went silent forever.
    Russia initially kept the Mars 3 landing a secret. And for almost 40 years, the mystery of what happened to the spacecraft remained unanswered. It was until the late 2000s that an astonishing satellite discovery left the space community in awe...

But I remember reading the newspaper, and reading a tiny article that stated that the Soviets had landed an unmanned vehicle on the moon, just days after the Apollo landing. Obviously, this was overshadowed by the Apollo mission, but I was still impressed by the Soviet venture.

      The knowledge you can't get in college.
      You need to remember this was during the cold war. Not a lot of cooperation between US & USSR. It wasnt until 1978 that there was a joint mission in Skylab where a Soyuz capsule dockef with Skylab, and the crews shook hands in a photo op.
      Shortly after (3 years) Skylab burnt up, & crashed into the ocean. NASA started the Shuttles programs testing in 1979. The ISS didn't come about until the turn of the millennium. But yeah, Russia's been sending stuff to Mars and Venus too. I belive theyve also been shooting sattellites to Jupiter as well.
      We concentrated on the Moon, and Voyager's 1 & 2.

    Yeah, the Soviets really did have a bold space program and the only one that maintained manned space flight contiguously since the 1960s. Even though the first manned Soyuz flight resulted in the death of the astronaut onboard, they fixed the parachute issue and kept that Soyuz program going to this day.
    There is something to be said for consistency. They found a solution and stuck with it.

    • @1sorryham

      Well, I think you mean continuous rather than contiguously. There were some gaps in the early Soviet manned space program, most notably a 2-year gap between Voshkod 2 and Soyuz-1, and another 2-year gap between the fatal Soyuz 11 mission and the redesigned Soyuz 12 spacecraft mission. The US also had a number of gaps between its various crewed space programs as well.

    Well, Mars 3 wasn't exactly "secret", as its launch was known about and its landing on Mars was mentioned at the time by the USSR on December 7th, 1971 (the Prop-M rover *was* secret however). It was the 2nd spacecraft to *hit* Mars, as it landed at the speed of 20.7 meters per second (46 mph) which is a pretty darn hard landing! It also didn't send a full picture, but only 70 lines that only showed a grey noisy background and no detail. By contrast, the Viking 1 lander touched down at only 2.4 meters per second (5.4 mph) and took a very large number of images from the surface.

      The moons usual phases here in California were always in a predictable vertical shaded position.These days it is shaded in its vertical position for a few days,than flips into a horizontal position for a few days.
      This would indicate a change in the wobble of the earth's rotational spin.The culprit must be the uneven melting of the ice caps at the poles.
      Indeed there is an ancient predynastic hieroglyphic carving in Egypt that talks about how during the reign of 1 Pharoah the sun rose in the east,& during the reign of another Pharoah it rose in the west.

      @@tr7b410 I have heard of this event in ancient Egypt, but I don't know what to make of it. From my understanding a pole shift has more to due with the magnetic polarity of the planet which has shifted in the past. For the whole planet to actually shift would be absolutely devastating, especially since this reference seems to say that it occurred over a day's time frame. I would need to see a lecture by an actual planetary specialist or group of specialists before I would believe the planet flipped in a day. You have to remember that the planet is about 24,000 miles in circumference, so to have a planet shift in a days time frame the planet would have to travel 12,000 miles in a short period of time. The acceleration a deceleration for this to happen would knock everyone and everything off their asses. The amount of stress placed on the tectonic plates would cause world wide earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, as well as massive tsunamis. In other words, worldwide destruction on a scale not seen since the extinction of the dinosaurs.

      @@flyboy38a All I know is in the past 4 nights the 🌙 moon has been shaded in 4 different positions relative to earth.This is not procession.
      4 years ago I read several reports of people claiming the sun was now rising in a different position than they had observed previously for decades.Those comments cannot be found anywhere on the internet.
      Ditto people observing tides flowing out of certain bays,& onto other areas where they never flowed before.
      I saw 1 scientific blog about the uneven melting of the ice caps.That resource has also been deleted.
      Something ain't right.

      Maybe it's the way my brain is operating at 1am. I can't understand what's going on at full speed but I think you're right. It becomes watchable at 0.75 speed.

    You may want to adjust playback to 0.75. That will bring the audio down to an enjoyable speed.

      @Boogaboioringale 2 года назад

      Yeah, but that’s in relation to the axis of the poles. The 65 degrees is in relation to the plane of revolution (ecliptic). Added together, you get about 90 degrees which you should
