Mars On Earth®
Mars On Earth® is
a sustainable human life support base project
that is designed for Mars but is located here, on Earth.
It will function as a the R & D center for the manned mission to Mars.
What is Mars On Earth®?
- A simulation on Earth of a 4-person sustainable biospheric life support
base
designed for Mars that can be
replicated & extended for additional
crews.
- A closed life support "test bed" for developing ecological
space-based systems
for water and wastewater recycling,
food production, and
air purification.
- A facility to test remote mining & geological survey protocols using
robotics to
simulate a Mars mission.
- A prototype habitat to select & train future Mars explorers.
Why Mars On Earth®?
- To develop life support systems capable of sustaining
long-term manned bases on
Mars within the next twenty years.
- To create a global center where interested participants can join together to explore
and develop
systems necessary
for a manned mission to Mars.
