NASA Recruits Crew for a “Mission” to the Moon and Mars
Technology
NASA has launched a search for volunteers for a unique experiment designed to prepare future crewed missions to the Moon and Mars. Participants will spend about a year in complete isolation, simulating the conditions of a deep-space expedition.
The mission is scheduled to begin no earlier than August 2027 at the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center. Volunteers will live in specially designed modules replicating an interplanetary spacecraft and a planetary surface habitat. Throughout the mission, they will conduct scientific research, maintain equipment, and perform daily tasks under limited-resource conditions.
During the experiment, NASA specialists will continuously monitor the participants' physical and psychological health while testing life-support systems and technologies intended for future deep-space exploration.
Applications are open to US citizens and permanent residents aged 30 to 55, with a height of up to 188 centimeters, who meet the agency's medical and professional requirements.
