Red Planet People is a crew of six academics dedicated to the future of human space exploration. First mission: 2 weeks at the Mars Desert Research Station!
Tonight my MDRS crew @RedPlanetPeople and I are speaking at the @TheMarsSociety's annual conference! Tune in at 8:30 pacific time (11:30 eastern) to see our panel on our Mars simulation experience! attendify.co/TMk3fRY

Crew 245 (Team Patamars) wrapped up its 2-week field simulation at our #MDRS facility outside Hanksville this weekend. We were glad to have them with us and look forward to hosting the next crew in early May. #stem #marsanalog #simulatemars #analogmission #utah #analogastronaut
Crew 245 is hard at work during an EVA mission near #MDRS, collecting soil samples and navigating the steep hills near the facility in the southern #Utah desert. #simulatemars #stem #education #analogmission #marsanalog #ucolorado
Throwback Thursday to our first day at MDRS! We were able to walk on the surface of "Mars" without our spacesuits before the simulation began. Now, we only venture beyond the Station while fully protected by our EVA suits.
