2021 will be remembered as the year of Mars. Three missions from three different countries have reached the Red Planet to probe different aspects of the Martian environment and pave the way for the first human settlers.
As new images flow from space, netizens are keeping their eyes on their screens, ultimately trying to answer the question of when Terrans will colonise the Red Planet!
Italy has a unique role in this. The fascination with Mars started with the observation of Schiaparelli during the Great Opposition of 1877, when many imagined the planet as riddled with canals(that is artificial channels) and with its own system of oceans and continents, speculations that not even the Mariner program with its flybys was able to smother completely.
But Italian involvement has not ended with Schiaparelli, as many researchers and institutions are still at the forefront, pushing the technology and the scientific research ahead to widen our knowledge about the Red Planet.

2021是火星探索重要的一年，中國、阿聯酋和美國的火星探測器都相繼在今年到達火星，美國的火星探測車毅力號（Perseverance）已率先在2月18日在火星著陸，無人直升機獨創號(Ingenuity)成功在火星上飛行，阿聯酋的希望號已進入預定軌道探測火星大氣層的成份等等，都為我們進一步揭開這紅色星球的神秘面紗。
未來的探索火星之路會是怎樣的？火星之後又是哪一站？講座好讓我們了解火星研究的最新發展，跟着科學家的腳步一起走向火星吧！
此活動由Italian Chamber of Commerce主辦。
