NASA's Dragonfly mission

                      A artist's impression on Dragonfly probe.                                                                                                                                                                          A week ago, American space agency NASA announced it's next destination in solar system. NASA planning a mission to Saturn's moon, Titan in search of Alien life, they named this project as 'Dragonfly'. Dragonfly was selected as part of agency's new frontiers program, which includes the New Horizons mission to Pluto and the kuiper Belt, Juno to Jupiter and OSIRIS REX to the asteroid Bennu.                                    Dragonfly is the first multi rotor vehicle for science on another planet, it contains eight rotors. It is dual quardcopter lander ( a Mars rover-size, drone like vehicle) that will explore the prebiotic Organic Chemistry of Titan, the biggest of Saturn's 62 moons.    

                                     This illustration shows NASA's Dragonfly on                                                             a site of Saturn's exotic moon, Titan.                                                                                                                                                                                               NASA's Jim Bridenstine said in the statement."Visiting the mysterious ocean could revolutionize what we know about life in the Universe. This cutting edge mission would have been unthinkable even just few years ago, but we are now ready for Dragonfly's amazing flight".                                                                                Titan have a dense Nitrogen based atmosphere having heavy traces of Methane gas. The thick atmosphere there would make flying something like Dragonfly possible, and upon making it's many stops, it could grab surface samples and snaps all shorts of picture. Dragonfly mission have potential to tell us about Titan's habitability and whether life can exist elsewhere in the solar system.                        

                              This illustration shows the landing of Dragonfly                                                     on Titan's surface.                                                                                                                                                                                                                          According to NASA, this mission should be launch in 2026 and based on the time it takes to get a spacecraft to the saturine system from Earth is 8 years which means it reaches Titan in 2034. But the Dragonfly's time period on Titan is 2.7 years. It uses it's instruments to analyse vast sand dunes, crater floors and various elements.                                                                                    "Titan is unlike any other piece in the solar system and Dragonfly is not like any other mission" added Thomas Zurbuchen NASA's associate administrator for science. It should be interesting to see what it finds.
