Think you have what it takes to be an astronaut on Mars? In this groundbreaking initiative, volunteers will spend a year in a simulated Mars habitat in Houston, facing the same hurdles and sacrifices as future astronauts. From the isolation to the limited resources, participants will get a taste of what it takes to live on the Red Planet. As NASA gears up for real missions to Mars in the 2030s, these simulations play a crucial role in understanding the complexities of Martian exploration. If you're between 30 to 55 years old with a science or piloting background, seize this opportunity to qualify and be part of humanity's journey to the stars!

Want to go to Mars? — Or pretend to,
anyway? NASA is currently
seeking applicants to spend a year in a simulated Mars
habitat in Houston. Volunteers for this
simulation will have to deal with many of the same difficulties
and sacrifices that future Martian astronauts
will actually face, such as not
being able to see friends and family
face-to-face, or having to put on a spacesuit
just to go outside, or the seriously
limited menu. As NASA prepares
to send people to the Red Planet
for real, which
it has stated
it would like to do as early
as the 2030s, it’s first using
these simulated missions on Earth
to figure out just what life on
Mars might be like for those future
explorers. And if you're
a healthy 30- to 55-year-old with a science or piloting
background, you might
just qualify.
