Mars rover "Curiosity" could contaminate water, according to media reports on the red planet. U.S. space agency NASA was not before the beginning lockheed strike of exploration robot sterilized all the equipment, such as the newspaper "Los Angeles Times" reported.
Engineers from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory near Los Angeles were added to a drill arm from the "Curiosity". Now there are fears that once the sterile drill may be exposed to germs and contaminates it. "Survival of the bacteria a little"
Although it is unlikely lockheed strike that the bacteria can not survive a trip to Mars and landing there, lockheed strike they said. Pollution is still possible if research robots to detect water on the planet. Wet places bacteria have a good chance of survival. "Curiosity" could also be analyzed using a laser spectrometer, or water from a distance.
NASA employee defending the claim. It's unlikely lockheed strike to find water at or near the surface of the Gale crater ice, had landed "Curiosity," said David Lavery lockheed strike of NASA Headquarters sheet. "We are against the risks before beginning to use any drill, and thus all the holes on Mars." "Calculated Risk"
Other NASA employees lockheed strike spoke to the report, and the calculated risk. The space agency expert, but the criticism that they did not learn from that time. "They can not do that without telling me," said Catharine Conley, who is responsible for the protection of the planet. These rules state that all of the tools that come with the Martian surface sterilized faced before. This is to prevent pollution of the planet with microbes.
"Curiosity" was on 6 August landed. He will learn more than two years,
the Red Planet. At its heart is the question of whether the conditions have been given life on Mars.
