The Hope Probe succeeds in reaching the Red Planet, and the UAE is leading a new stage in Arab scientific history

The site stated that about 50 Percent of all missions to Mars fail, collapse, burn up, or never reach, indicating the complexity of interplanetary travel and the difficulty of landing through the thin Martian atmosphere.

The site added that if things go according to plan, the Hope probe will settle during the next two months in an exceptionally high orbit around Mars, to work through it to survey the atmosphere saturated with carbon dioxide around the entire planet, at all times of the day and all seasons of the Martian year.

BBC: The UAE is the first Arab country to have a scientific and exploratory presence on planets

As for the multilingual BBC website, it highlighted in a report that the Hope probe sent the first image from Mars, after it entered the orbit of the Red Planet last Tuesday, stressing that the Hope probe makes the UAE the first Arab country in history to have a scientific and exploratory presence. On the planet Earth's nearest neighbor. The report said that this first image will be followed by several similar scenes, images and unprecedented scientific data on Mars.

And the site added that the Hope probe was inserted into a wide orbit to be able to study the weather and climate on the Red Planet, which means that it will see the entire disk of the planet, and this type of vision is usual from ground-based telescopes, but it is less common among satellites on Mars, as satellites approach Usually from the planet to obtain high-resolution images of the surface.
