Mission To Mars On Earth (FiST Chat 47)

Independent Films, Technology, Talk Shows, Web Series

The Mars-500 Project wrapped last week where six volunteers participated in a 520-day long simulated Mission To Mars. The experiment was designed to test and collate data on the psychological and medical requirements for humans travelling in confined spaces over long distances and travel times in outer space, such as making the long journey to Mars.

Steve and Ben discuss this and the possibilities of interplanetary space travel, and how Hollywood makes it look too easy.
