Sarnus Surveyor arrives near Sarnus and performs maneuvers designed to navigate several of the gas giant’s moons!
The images sent back are breathtaking!
Eeloo, the first Sarnusian moon to be investigate will sadly have to wait until another pass… the sun blocks the probe’s power and the probe drifts on by!
The Sarnus Surveyor probe enters the Sarnus System! In 29 days the spacecraft will fire its engines and do a flyby of Sarnus itself and the moon of Eelo!
Frontier 2 does a long-distance flyby of Tekto! While the probe has enough fuel to enter orbit, scientists are more interested in the other moons of Sarnus for the time being. The more advanced Sarnus Surveyor will hopefuly be able to map the surface of Tekto!
The first Sarnus Surveyor leaves for Sarnus! Once the probe reaches the Sarnus system, scans will be done to determine which moon is the most promising. Future probes will certainly follow!
The Sarnus Surveyor is the next probe to launch – this time a night launch! The window to Sarnus is in 34 days – the craft will stay in a parking orbit until then!
It’s thought that the Sarnus Surveyor will have enough fuel to explore much of the Sarnus system… however a specific target hasn’t been decided, a maneuver en route will adjust the approach once KSEA decides where to send the probe!
KSEA commissions the development of several new Surveyor class deep space probes – Neidon Surveyor, Urlum Surveyor, Sarnus Surveyor, and the Jool Surveyor. Like Duna Surveyor, these deep space probes are designed to map the surface of deep space bodies to allow a more scientific approach to exploring space!
