NASA launched Monday a giant balloon with a kind of “flying saucer” that will test technologies to land on Mars, but his parachute only partially deployed.
The aircraft, with the biggest parachute ever built, was launched from a military base in Hawaii, after some delays due to weather.
The huge helium balloon rose for three hours, according to NASA, who passed the live event.
It was the second test of this device titled Supersonic Decelerator Low Density.
