and so much needs to write. this is what is known as the seven minutes of terror. the spacecraft will hit the top of the martian atmosphere at 12,000 miles an hour but it needs to come to a complete stop and then lower the rover gently onto the ground, just seven minutes later, and all completely autonomously. but to find out more about all of these missions i spoke to elizabeth seward, a robust defence and space strategist. we have got three spacecraft all getting to mars are pretty much the same time. with; all getting to mars are pretty much the same time.- much the same time. why is that? is mars _ much the same time. why is that? is mars into _ much the same time. why is that? is mars into the i much the same time. why is that? is mars into the earth| that? is mars into the earth orbit around the sun you can imagine them like races on a racetrack with earth on the inside and going quite fast and mars is the outside one and going quite slow and so every two years they line up so just before they line up is when you want to launch from earth and

then the spacecraft catches up with mars and it can land on mars. if we tried to do it any other time the distances between the planets would be so great we would not be able to put enough rocket fuel on the rocket to get them there so we have this two year window and so every two years we cannot spacecraft and so there is often a queue, it has happened before in the 70s as well for it, create once, and so this time we are seeing three at once. ., ., , time we are seeing three at once, ., ., , ., time we are seeing three at once. . ., , ., ., ., once. china has now landed a robe once. china has now landed a probe on _ once. china has now landed a probe on the _ once. china has now landed a probe on the far— once. china has now landed a probe on the far side - once. china has now landed a probe on the far side of- once. china has now landed a probe on the far side of the i probe on the far side of the moon and now landing its first rover on mars. it sounds to me like china's catching up with the us in terms of space. the chinese space _ the us in terms of space. tue: chinese space exploration the us in terms of space. tt;e: chinese space exploration has hugely increased in pace recently. you could say catching up all you could say outpacing, nobody else has landed on the far side of the moon yet so that was a world first. they are not the only ones entering into space though. we saw the indian nation want to probe to mars and they have their satellite in orbit already and we're talking about the uae today and

many other countries now are able to access space so it is very exciting. able to access space so it is very exciting-— very exciting. there's a real fleet of spacecraft - very exciting. there's a real fleet of spacecraft in - very exciting. there's a real fleet of spacecraft in orbit l fleet of spacecraft in orbit around mars now, isn't there? loads of them!— loads of them! the future is full of mars _ loads of them! the future is full of mars missions - loads of them! the future is full of mars missions and i full of mars missions and perseverance rover that is landing is going to collect samples and leave them in little cases, little field tubes, where ever it finds them so they will be dotted around the surface and then in europe, in fact in stevenage in the uk, we are currently designing the sample fetch rover which i'm sure will have a snappier name by the time it gets to mars, and it will go around and trundle after it and pick up all of these samples. after the rovers pick them all up it will put them inside a baseball —sized canister, it gets shot off the martian surface by a mars ascent vehicle and then the baseball canister has to be captured by our spacecraft called the earth return orbiter

to bring them home and so what you will have is literally a baseball catch in orbit. so that it can bring those samples back to earth. getting spacecraft to mars is an incredible achievement, but with the perils of exploration, sample returns, and data collection still to take these these missions are just the beginning. keys, phone, hand sanitiser, and face mask. facemasks have become one of the essential items for when we leave the house. so i've been taking a look at some of the more unusual ones. first up is mask phone. it has built—in earphones and a microphone so you can make phone calls without sounding muffled by your mask. they often catch up with friends while i'm out

doing my exercise, so if i'm going to be wearing a mask of because i could were separate earphones but it was white convenient to have them built in and the person they called said they sounded good and not at all muffled. on a windy day it may have helped with that too. but in terms of the fabric mask itself, great that it is machine washable and you just slip in and 95 filter, but personally this isn't my chosen type of mask. and i thought it could do with being a bit longer so i could pulley further under my chin. next up is our pop's active plus mask. a lot of people who wear single use masks don't actually dispose of them after every use and, likewise, a lot of people wearing masks that need the filters replacing and actually replacing the filters as often as they should. this mask has sensors inside this silver button that measure your breathing rate. the app then combines that with local air quality data to alert you when

you need to replace the filter. before putting on a new filter you need to use the app to scan the qr code, that will both ensure the filter is genuine and also make a note of when it has been put in. the mask itself feels very like the 3—d net fabric of high—end trainers so it's tough and it's breathable. i'm told it will offer n 99 protection, that is greater than n95. it will keep out aerosols, liquids, and pollution. the app was only in beta mode when i'd tested it but it accurately recorded along had been wearing the mask. i've personally found the mask. i've personally found the mask itself a better fit than the mask phone one. and, longer term, the focus on this product is to protect you from poor air quality. that is of course a smaller mask wearing market, although it could be a growing one. next up is uv mask. now, it was quite surprised by how

bulky this mask was when it arrived as it feels rather hefty to wear. but that's because inside it hides ultraviolet uv see leds. they aim to kill bacteria and viruses for up to eight hours of wear. the company has assured me that the ubc is safe assured me that the ubc is safe as it never reaches your skin and also that the device doesn't create any ozone so was not going to be causing a problem for air quality. now, when i first with the mask on it was surprisingly comfortable. the only thing was that it does make a bit of sound and i've felt a little bit of our coming out here that was tickling my eyes. it was very conscious of all of that while indoors, but as soon as a went outside i did stop noticing. at that point it was a matter of getting used to wearing something so solid on my face and they did come a point where i was quite relieved to take it off. and here's a prototype by gaming company razor. it's project debbie hazel mask was revealed

at ces injanuary. it's see—through design has what it calls active ventilation to bavencio to build up in the mask. it also has a microphone and its charging case has uv light inside for sterilisation. for many these ideas might be a bit of over engineering, but if you are looking for a mask with a difference and you are willing to pay for it then one of these mightjust willing to pay for it then one of these might just appeal. being on lockdown can have its challenges, either because we are forced together for much longer than usual or because we are away from our partners. so this valentine's day i'm going to be spending it with — no—one! i'm single right now. but i'm making myself a valentines cake, lemon flavour, just to, you know, give myself some love. but even if they found my soulmate tomorrow i don't think it would be all

between us, just launched by tavistock relationships. it is said to dig a bit deeper to understand the root of their problems. but can these really help solve the deeper issues of the relationship?— the relationship? they are very aood at the relationship? they are very good at prompting _ good at prompting communication. it doesn't really tell you how to do it. and it can't replace the therapist who is actually in therapist who is actually in the room noticing the dynamic between the couple and helping them to take care of themselves and to improve the way they communicate by actually coaching them through that. so these apps may not be an instant fix, they still require a lot of effort and communication from the couple to get the best out of them, but they still can be useful. i might give them a try myself one day, well, when i'm taken again. that was omar. you can find him on social media and all good dating apps. i

accumulations up to 5—10 cm and that snow will be blowing around and the strong winds drifting in places. the snow will then slowly move eastwards, affecting western parts of scotland, into wales and the south—west of england, but it won't reach central or eastern areas so, here, it'll stay dry, but cloud cover will move in again in the afternoon, so it will turn a bit grey. a very windy, gusty day for all areas. factor in those strong winds with these sorts of temperatures, then it's going to feel bitterly cold wherever you are. these are the feel—like temperatures. it could feel even like —10 celsius across some spots of the east. so, a very cold day to come. as we move through saturday night, it stays windy and cold. there will be further rain, sleet and snow across northern and western areas. signs of something a little less cold just pushing into the far west of the country, but central and eastern areas, another very cold night especially when you factor in the wind. as we head into sunday, we've got a fresh tangle of weather fronts, bringing more rain, and it will be of rain because here, the milder air will start to make inroads. gradually, it will reach eastern areas, but it will take its time. sunday, a bit of an east—west divide with temperatures very cold across the east, and any

rain moving across northern and eastern areas falling on frozen services is likely to cause a significant risk of ice. beware of that. through sunday, it looks like it'll be rather cloudy for most areas, outbreaks of rain pushing into northern and western areas. some heavy across western hills. we'll see gales developing around irish sea coasts through the north channel and across western scotland, but a windy day wherever you are. signs of something much milder pushing into the west, double figure values. still quite cold across the east and southeast. as we head into the new week, that mild air wins out. double figures for all areas. it won't be completely settled. there will be some rain at times for some of us and nights will be much milder.
