SpaceX is in luck because it will be in charge of sending NASA's dragonfly mission, Titan, the giant moon of Saturn, the only place outside the Earth where it rains on its surface, there are rivers, lakes and small seas and also a large amount of matter. organic.
Life will have emerged on Titan, we do not know yet, but it is one of the candidates where there may be life there, because in addition to the rivers, the lakes, the rain that is on the surface of Titan under its crust, it is also known that there is liquid water, Titan's internal heat heats a layer of liquid water that apparently could be a global ocean, something similar to what happens on Europa, but at a much deeper layer.
This ship is flying, although you see it chubby and heavy, it is a flying laboratory on Titan. It turns out that it is much easier to fly than on Earth. Titan has one and a half times the Earth's atmospheric pressure and its gravity is even lower than that of the Moon. , it is a little smaller than that of the moon, so flying on Titan is extremely easy, so even though it is a heavy ship and on Earth it probably couldn't fly, on Titan it can.
It has the advantage that it will be able to travel much more space and explore much more territory. The contract that NASA has signed with SpaceX has a fixed price of $2,566,000,000, which includes launch services and other costs related to the mission.
The Dragonfly mission currently has a launch period scheduled for July 5 to 25, 2028. It will be on a Falcon Heavy rocket, because a lot of power is needed, and it will be launched from launch complex 39A at the Kennedy Space Center at NASA. Florida, the forecast is that the ship, the dragonfly, will arrive in December 2034 and when it does it will reveal many of the mysteries of Titan.
What do you think, there will be life on Titan, I hope so, there has to be life somewhere else outside of Earth and Titan has many cards for at least bacterial or microscopic life to have emerged there.
