Symptoms of Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) An early symptom of wet AMD is that straight lines appear wavy. An Amsler Grid chart can help spot this early distortion of vision. You may also notice a small blind spot, resulting in a loss of central vision.
Traveling at approximately 29,000 km/h (18,000 mph) the shuttle orbits Earth every 90 minutes. By using current technology and a spacecraft powered by chemical rocket engines, a trip to Mars could take between six to nine months.
Fastest spacecraft so far. The fastest spacecraft launched from Earth was NASA's New Horizons mission, which is en route to Pluto. In January 2006, the probe left Earth at 36,000 mph (58,000 kph). The time it would take such a probe to get to Mars would be:o determine how long it will take to reach Mars, we must first know the distance between the two planets. Mars is the fourth planet from the sun, and the second closest to Earth (Venus is the closest).
