Visualized Mars Probe Process

    Chinawill launch its first Mars probe Yinghuo I via a Russian made launch vehicle in 2011. Not long ago, ZHAO Zhengxu, Dean of Computer and Information Engineering School, part of Shijiazhuang Railway Institute, told reporters that after the launch of the Mars probe, Beijing based command center will follow the entire probe process in a 3-D manner, based on the real-time data collected. The new system is designed to place a precise control over the operation of the probe, inputting the needed data to adjust the operation for a required scalability. It produces the visualized 3-D presentation of deep space probe activities on the known celestial bodies, including meteoroids, comets, and even space garbage.
