Lighting up the Darknesses of Space

With RPS, I’d send a rover to land on Saturn’s moon Enceladus with goals to search for evidence of past or present microbial life and to study its geology and climate. Recent data from the Cassini mission shows that Enceladus is an ice-rock world with active plumes of gas and particles that originate from its subsurface warm, salty ocean. A rover could drill through the thinnest part of Enceladus’ surface – its South Pole - and study the vast oceans and rocks beneath. It could also take samples of plume material that falls back to Enceladus.   My unique power, resilience, reflects the strengths of RPS. RPS is strong and continues to produce electricity and power spacecraft in space’s toughest conditions. Similarly, I am not easily deterred by daunting obstacles; instead, I push through them with determination and willpower. The mission to Enceladus will be full of challenges – from entering orbit and landing on a very small moon to developing a rover that can explore icy surfaces and collect plume samples. However, with my power of resilience, I can overcome these difficulties to keep pushing forward and successfully explore one of our solar system’s most enthralling and exciting objects!
