VIVAnews -to send a man to set foot on the asteroid in space, a group of NASA scientists and astronauts test concepts and techniques needed for future expeditions will run.

Testing was done on a mock stone space at the foot of the ocean are implanted.

At the moment, the engineers had laid the foundations for a NASA expedition to-15 entitled "NASA's extreme environment Mission Operations" or abbreviated NEEMO 3. The Mission of the process is scheduled to be held on October 17th, ahead.

To prepare the mission under the sea, the crew of divers put the device and the Rocky atmosphere needed to the surface of the asteroid simulate set.

"Expedition will simulate a trip to the asteroid, and the aquanauts will examine how best to go on the surface of the stone space and walking around," said Brandi Dean, NASA spokesman quoted from Foxnews, may 12, 2011.

Unlike the landing on the Moon or Mars, the asteroid landing will be harder because if anything, the gravity would be very little. To this end, the NEEMO 3 will evaluate the different methods of landing and do a test run in the bottom of the sea is one of the best ways to simulate low gravity conditions.

"The experts but have no idea of what the surface of the asteroid," said Bill Todd, NEEMO Project Manager. "Out there are asteroids we still need to know and here's post. For that we are looking for the best way to landfall there, "he said.
