There will be millions of applicants for this. They'll get the cream of the crop for this experiment. If we ever end up actually going to mars then these people will be in every history book.
Would be interesting to choose bottom of the barrel and average Joe control groups.
I would absolutely do this but I have health problems that would make me an unqualified subject :(
age range 30-55
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The space agency is looking for participants to live on a fake Mars for a full year to help them prepare for human exploration of the planet.
The missions, called CHAPEA, for Crew Health and Performance Exploration Analog, take place in a 3D-printed Mars habitat at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas.
They will experience typical environmental stressors of the planet as well as equipment failures and delays in communications.
Applicants must also have experience working in STEM – with a master's in engineering, math, biology or other sciences and professional experience or at least two years of doctoral work in these areas or a test pilot program.
The first CHAPEA mission is still underway and NASA is using the experience to learn about health and performance during Mars explorations.
Its atmosphere includes carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and argon gases, which create a hazy, dusty red sky.
The original article contains 473 words, the summary contains 147 words. Saved 69%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Just need an old pc with sim city and rollercoaster tycoon.
Dang I was kind of interested in this but it looks like you gotta be smart smart
