ESTEN: “We did not see any dust, coma, or tail, which is unusual”

XCHAOS: no ja te uplne vazne fakt neberu, neboj :)

Ten smer neni nahoda. Je to strana, na kterou sviti slunce. Stejnej efekt je u komet, jak pisou v tom clanku.

ESTEN: Jde asi o rozsireni infrastuktury na Vanderbergu, volne terminy a marketingove (start pujde sledovat z pobrezi).

First interplanetary launch from the West Coast
All of NASA's interplanetary launches to date have been from Florida, in part because the physics of launching off the East Coast are better for journeys to other planets. But InSight will break the mold by launching from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. It will be the first launch to another planet from the West Coast.

InSight will ride on top of a powerful Atlas V 401 rocket, which allows for a planetary trajectory to Mars from either coast. Vandenberg was ultimately chosen because it had more availability during InSight's launch period.

A whole new region will get to see an interplanetary launch when InSight rockets into the sky. In a clear, pre-dawn sky, the launch may be visible in California from Santa Maria to San Diego.

Možná blbá otázka - proč letí InSight na jih? Není to na Mars blíž přes východ?

"During the first 17 seconds of powered flight, the Atlas V will climb vertically above its launch pad. Then it will begin a pitch and yaw maneuver that will place it on a trajectory towards Earth’s south pole."
