(A Pretend) Mission to Mars


I recently discovered the Mars500 project, a project where 6 people (above) volunteer themselves to simulate a trip to Mars. The volunteers live in an experimental isolation facility in Moscow for 520 days. The room is 550 cubic meters and mind you, they have no access to the outside world.

The experiment started on June 3rd, and we already have some photos of what they're up to.

Meds

Vacuuming the connecting module (in other words, the tube that connects 2 rooms together)

What better way to pass time than to learn (or teach) a new language!

Rocking out on Rock Band!

And after a long days work, why not rewind with some landing simulators?

Pretty cool thing at first, but I can't wait for when these 6 get on each others' nerves (and the pictures of it).
