This article is about the conclusion of a Nasa-funded Mars Simulation that recently occurred in Hawaii. Since the 29th of August an astrobiologist, physicist, architect, journalist, and soil scientist have been living in close quarters, without having fresh food or air. The simulation is the second longest of its time throughout history. During the year-long process, they had to wear space suits outside their dome, and live with limited resources.
I think this is a necessity if they want to complete a successful journey to Mars. It's good that they didn't take any breaks in the middle, or do anything to somewhat compromise the legitimacy of the simulation. I'm happy that Nasa is putting some priority into sending people to Mars. The world is populating more than ever, and eventually it's going to get too crowded. I'm not sure when, but it will be a good idea to colonize Mars, and find ways to grow crops etc. Projects like these are good for Nasa, because ever since the shutting down of the shuttle program, they have kind of lost their image. The progression of space travel and life is crucial to the future of the human race, in my opinon.
