One of them is already well out of the solar system and continues to move away to more than 200 000 km / h. The man finally has put his foot on the moon, is planning to return to install bases up there, and also on Mars, where water was found, and atendant prepares its future conquests in the international space station that avoids the tens of thousands of objects orbiting the Earth. Year of Astronomy will help take stock of all the advanced theoretical and practical, with the topical question: what about dark matter?
