The rocket, which will be made entirely with 3D printing, will send a space orbiter and lander to Mars.
Two private companies from the US Impulse Space and Relativity Space have joined forces to carry out the first fully commercial mission to Mars. The flight will take place in two years. This was reported by Gizmodo.
The launch is scheduled from Cape Canaveral in Florida, USA. Relativity Space’s Terran R launch vehicle will carry the orbiting Mars Cruise Vehicle and landing Mars Lander, which is being developed by Impulse Space.
The rocket will launch a payload into space, the two vehicles will fly together to the Red Planet and separate in orbit. The Mars Cruise Vehicle will remain orbiting Mars, while the lander must parachute down and begin its work.
Remember, NASA plans to launch a mission called the Mars Life Explorer (MLE), whose goal is to search for life on the Red Planet. If agreed, this order could begin in the 2030s.
