Mikhalidwe Yofunika Pamoyo pa Mars

DrivenData, mothandizana ndi HeroX, alengeza mpikisano wawo waposachedwa kwambiri wopezerapo anthu ambiri m'malo mwa NASA: Mars Spectrometry, Dziwani Umboni Wokhala Pakale. Vutoli, lomwe limapereka ndalama zokwana $30,000, limafunafuna njira zatsopano zothandizira kusanthula ndi kutanthauzira kusanthula kwa gasi - kuchuluka kwa ma spectrometry okhudzana ndi kufufuza kwa Mars. Deta iyi yachokera ku zitsanzo za sayansi yazachilengedwe kuti timvetsetse bwino zomwe dzikoli lingakhalepo zosonyeza kukhalako m'mbuyomu.            

Chimodzi mwazinthu zofunika kwambiri za sayansi ya mapulaneti m'zaka zaposachedwa ndikuti Mars anali ndi chilengedwe chomwe chikanakhalako m'mbuyomo. Kumvetsetsa momwe mikhalidweyi idasinthira ndikofunikira kuti timvetsetse mikhalidwe ya Mars kuti anthu azikhalamo pakapita nthawi. Pamafunso amenewa, ma robus angapo amphamvu komanso amphamvu atumizidwa ku Mars kuti akatenge zitsanzo za miyala ndikuyeza miyeso yomwe ingagwiritsidwe ntchito kudziwa momwe amapangidwira. Kuphatikiza apo, masauzande masauzande ambiri adawunikidwa m'ma lab Padziko Lapansi kuti athandize asayansi kumvetsetsa zomwe zasonkhanitsidwa pa Mars. Pogwiritsa ntchito njira zambiri zoyeserera zomwe zachitika pamiyala yofananira, njira za sayansi ya data zitha kupangidwa kuti zithandizire asayansi pakuwunika kwawo komanso kumasulira kwazomwe zasonkhanitsidwa ndi zida zama pulaneti ndi zida za labotale. Kupita patsogolo kumeneku kungathandizenso asayansi kuti azigwira ntchito zamtsogolo mwachangu komanso moyenera.

Pazovuta izi, otenga nawo mbali ali ndi ntchito yomanga njira yodziwiratu zowunikira za gasi (EGA) za zitsanzo zoyeserera za Mars zomwe zasonkhanitsidwa pazida zamalonda ndi labotale zofanana ndi zomwe zimagwiritsidwa ntchito pofufuza Mars. Njira zabwino kwambiri ziyenera kuzindikira kukhalapo kwa mabanja ena a mankhwala (otchulidwa muzovuta) mu zitsanzo. Njira zopambana zitha kugwiritsidwa ntchito kuthandiza ma mission amtsogolo a mapulaneti monga ExoMars mission ndi Dragonfly mission kupita ku Titan.

"Izi zikuthandizira funso lofufuza lochititsa chidwi pomwe zida zophunzirira makina zimatha kukhala ndi zotsatira zenizeni za momwe tingadziwire zambiri za malo athu m'chilengedwe," adatero Greg Lipstein, Principal, DrivenData. "Ndi mwayi waukulu kugwiritsa ntchito luntha komanso chidwi cha gulu la data kuti tipititse patsogolo sayansi yotseguka."

"Ndizosangalatsa kuganiza kuti pakhoza kukhala zizindikiro za momwe anthu angakhalire ku Mars zomwe kufufuzaku kungathandize kutanthauzira," adatero Kal K. Sahota, CEO, HeroX. "Mavutowa ndi olimbikitsa kwambiri pamene tikufufuza umboni wa zamoyo zakuthambo."

Chovuta: Njirazi ziyenera kuzindikira kukhalapo kwa mabanja ena a mankhwala opangidwa ndi mankhwala omwe amasonkhanitsidwa pochita EGA-MS pamagulu a zitsanzo za geological material.

Kuyenerera Kupikisana ndi Kupambana Mphotho: Mphothoyi imatsegulidwa kwa aliyense wazaka 18 kapena kupitilirapo yemwe atenga nawo mbali payekha kapena gulu. Opikisana nawo aliyense payekhapayekha komanso magulu atha kuchokera kudziko lililonse, bola ngati zilango za federal ku United States sizikuletsa kutenga nawo mbali (zoletsa zina zimagwira ntchito). Zofunikira zowonjezera zovomerezeka kapena malire atha kupezeka m'malamulo otsutsa.
