The Mars Project
An Educational Space Simulation of a Journey to Mars
A worldwide space simulation coordinated by Chris Rowan, Fred Donelson, and Doug Bates.

Welcome to The Mars Project, An Educational Space Simulation of a Journey to Mars. This project engaged students on four continents in an extended space simulation covering many months. This project sought to overcome some of the limitations inherent in short-term educational space simulations by increasing the duration of the simulation.
