Mars Lander Crashes at 335mph

Mars Lander Crash

  • The ESA concluded that the device that measured the rotation of the lander recorded a maximum reading thereby causing miscalculations to other variables.

  • The breaking thrusters and parachutes were deployed before hand , causing the accident.

  • The rover was worth 251 million dollars and had spent several months travelling on the Trace Gas Orbiter.
