Live a year on Mars without leaving Earth: NASA is looking for participants in a special mission

This program will be one of the stages of preparation for the landing of the first humans on Mars. This will help to understand how people will react to being in the conditions of the Red Planet in a special room on Earth.

Why this is necessary

The series of experiments will include three one-year "stays on Mars" at NASA's Johnson Space Center. As part of the study, scientists want to develop methods to solve possible difficulties that may pose a danger to future conquerors of Mars.

“Simulating the alien habitat on Earth will help us better understand and prevent the physical and psychological challenges that astronauts will face,” says Grace Douglas, a research assistant at Johnson Space Center in Houston.

Each experiment will involve 4 crew members. They will live and work in a 158 square meter 3D-printed module.

Experiment plan:

  • Stage 1 - early autumn 2022
  • Stage 2 - early 2024
  • Stage 3 - early 2025

Life in the module will simulate the difficulties of a real mission on Mars, including limited resources, equipment failure, delayed message transmission, and other factors that can stress astronauts. The crew will "go out" into outer space, conduct scientific research, use virtual reality and control robots, as well as "send messages" to Earth. The results of the experiment will provide an opportunity to obtain important scientific data for preparation for a real flight and to develop a solution to the problems that have arisen.

Who will become a member of the ground "flight to Mars"

Participants are open to US residents between the ages of 30 and 50 and in excellent health. They also need to be non-smoking and have good command of English to communicate between themselves and the experiment control center. NASA will select crew members according to its standard criteria for selecting astronauts.

Participants in the experiment must also have a master's degree in engineering, mathematics or biology, physics or computer science, or at least a thousand flight hours in an airplane. They can also be people with a doctorate in the above sciences or a degree in medicine. Professional military personnel are also considered as candidates.
