Scientists are developing a platform for landing on the Moon and Mars


Using the lessons learned from the mission "Apollo" and robotic missions sent to Mars, NASA scientists and engineers study the problems and dangers associated with landing on other planets.

The new technology is called "vertical takeoff - a vertical landing." According to the group, operating within the design and technology of NASA's Kennedy Space Center, Florida, the best approach to planning involves landing on a predetermined spot landing area.
