The Mars Lander Crash: What Went Wrong?

The video discusses the ExoMars mission, a collaboration between ESA and Roscosmos, aimed at exploring Mars's atmosphere and potential signs of life. The mission included the Trace Gas Orbiter and the Schiaparelli Lander, which unfortunately crashed on Mars. Despite the crash, the mission continues with the orbiter's research. The video also covers the discovery of ultra luminous X-ray sources in distant galaxies, which are significantly brighter than known magnetars. These findings were made using data from NASA's Chandra Observatory and ESA's XMM Newton Observatory.
