La misi\u00f3n Venus Express, cuyo lanzamiento est\u00e1 previsto para el 9 de noviembre a bordo de un cohete ruso Soyuz, ser\u00e1 la primera nave espacial de la ESA en explorar el planeta casi gemelo de la Tierra. Se espera que entre en \u00f3rbita alrededor de Venus en abril de 2006.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

La nave espacial, que volar\u00e1 a una altura de entre 250 y 66 000 km por encima de los polos de Venus, dedicar\u00e1 dos a\u00f1os venusianos (500 d\u00edas terrestres) a estudiar la densa capa de nubes y la atm\u00f3sfera del planeta m\u00e1s cercano a la Tierra.<\/p>\n

Se han enviado m\u00e1s de 20 naves espaciales rusas y estadounidenses para explorar el segundo planeta desde el Sol, pero a\u00fan quedan muchos misterios por resolver:<\/p>\n

    \u00bfCu\u00e1l es la temperatura y la composici\u00f3n de la atm\u00f3sfera?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    \u00bfC\u00f3mo circula la atm\u00f3sfera?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    \u00bfCu\u00e1l es su composici\u00f3n a diferentes alturas?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    \u00bfC\u00f3mo interact\u00faa la atm\u00f3sfera con la superficie?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    \u00bfC\u00f3mo interact\u00faa la atm\u00f3sfera exterior con el viento solar?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Los siete instrumentos cient\u00edficos a bordo de la Venus Express intentar\u00e1n desentra\u00f1ar estos misterios.<\/p>\n

    Como lo sugiere su nombre, Venus Express se dise\u00f1\u00f3 y construy\u00f3 en s\u00f3lo tres a\u00f1os \u2013 un plazo muy corto para una nave planetaria. De forma similar a Mars Express de la ESA, la nave se ha adaptado para soportar las altas temperaturas y radiaciones de Venus. La mayor\u00eda de los instrumentos se basan en elementos desarrollados para las misiones Mars Express y Rosetta.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
