Hey there
I just saw a show on Discovery about spacetravel, and a little question arose as the show ended:
In the documentary, by my observations aged 3 -4 years, they mentioned a plane going to Mars to explore the planet. In the animations it looked a lot like conventional airplanes with wings, propeller and the usual stuff... But is it at all posible to fly an aeroplane in the Martian atmosphere? No air to ride on? Or is my limited knowledge of how aeroplanes work too limited? Hope you guys can shed a bit of light on this matter.
Best Regards
Thomas Hansen
