A group of scientists, to help the efforts to colonize Mars, built a habitat on a volcanic island in Hawaii. They stayed there for eight months to see how humans interact when together for long periods of time. A Mars mission would take about 4 years, so people have to like each other to be apart of the mission. Every day the scientists go out on “Mars” and do what real astronauts would do. They are required to wear space suits to simulate being on Mars. They will soon go on another mission for a whole year this time.

How do they live on a volcano
ReplyDeleteThey live on a volcanic island that looks like Mars. The whole island isn't actually a volcano.
DeleteThat sounds tough for the people that went on the mission. They must need to be mentally tough. And sustain living with very annoying people. Like me.
