Russia's Federal Space Agency to Wednesday (11/09/2011) night is still struggling to regain control spacecraft Phobos-Ground, which was originally scheduled to be on his way to Phobos, one of two natural satellites of Mars.

Vehicle was successfully launched with Zenit-2 booster rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome launch site in Kazakhstan on Wednesday after midnight Moscow time (03:16 pm GMT or Tuesday at 20:16 GMT).

The plane was to break away from the rocket booster eleven minutes later, and it should turn on the pusher machine itself twice to melontarkannya to the flight path toward Mars. However, it did not happen and the plane was eventually trapped in Earth orbit.

The Russians had difficulty controlling the plane was due to limited communication network of the Earth's surface to the aircraft's position in orbit.

They even had time to ask for assistance from countries in South America to track the whereabouts of a vehicle weighing 13.2 tons of it visually. Amatirlah astronomers who first knows that a vehicle was stuck in orbit.

Head of Russian Federal Space Agency said Vladimir Popovkin, the technicians on Earth have three days to reconfigure the computer program Phobos-Ground and tried to re-launch toward Mars before the battery dies emergency.

Popovkin said, after the battery dies, it remains capable spacecraft orbiting the Earth for up to two weeks.

Rides worth 170 million U.S. dollars was scheduled to arrive in Mars orbit in September 2012, and landed on the surface of Phobos in February 2013. The plane will then take soil samples from the surface of the satellite's 20 kilometers in diameter and returning to Earth in August 2014.

If Phobos-Ground rescue efforts fail, then it is feared the plane would fall to Earth carrying seven tons of fuel nitrogen teroksida and highly toxic hydrazine.
