KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - Just minutes after liftoff, the 19-stories-tall Atlas V launch vehicle, with a two-ton Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) on top, roars into the clear blue sky from Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. Liftoff was at 7:43 a.m. EDT. All systems performed nominally for NASA's first launch of an Atlas V on an interplanetary mission. MRO established radio contact with controllers 61 minutes after launch and within four minutes of separation from the upper stage. Initial contact came through an antenna at the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's Uchinoura Space Center in southern Japan. Mars is 72 million miles from Earth today, but the spacecraft will travel more than four times that distance on its outbound-arc trajectory to intercept the red planet on March 10, 2006. The orbiter carries six scientific instruments for examining the surface, atmosphere and subsurface of Mars in unprecedented detail from low orbit. NASA expects to get several times more data about Mars from MRO than from all previous Martian missions combined. Researchers will use the instruments to learn more about the history and distribution of Mars' water. That information will improve understanding of planetary climate change and will help guide the quest to answer whether Mars ever supported life. The orbiter will also evaluate potential landing sites for future missions. (Photo Credit: Tom Rogers) KSC-05pp1880

Zusammenfassung
Die Delta-Trägerfamilie begann 1959 mit der Entwicklung. Das Delta bestand aus Teilen der Thor, einer ballistischen Mittelstreckenrakete, als erster Stufe und der Vanguard als zweiter Stufe. Das erste Delta wurde am 13. Mai 1960 von Cape Canaveral aus gestartet und war stark genug, um ein 100-Pfund-Raumschiff in den geostationären Transferorbit zu bringen. Delta wurde verwendet, um zivile, kommerzielle und militärische Satelliten in den Orbit zu schießen. Kevin Forsyth bemerkt, dass & quot; Delta eines der dauerhaftesten Mitglieder der ursprünglichen Familie der US-Weltraumraketen ist und seit langem als "Arbeitstier des Weltraums" bekannt ist. '& quot; Weitere Informationen über Delta finden Sie in Kapitel 3 von Roger Launius und Dennis Jenkins' Buch To Reach the High Frontier, das 2002 von The University Press of Kentucky veröffentlicht wurde.
