Hypatia Mars
Hypatia Mars is an organization dedicated to advancing Martian research and outreach, promoting space exploration, and fostering scientific vocations, especially among girls and young women
Objectives
Hypatia Mars has three main objectives:
- Conduct high-quality space-related research in a Martian simulation environment on a variety of academic fields.
- Inspire the next generations, with an emphasis on young girls —and other underrepresented groups— interested in pursuing STEM-related careers.
- Engage society into space-exploration throughout science and outreach activities.
Team
Hypatia Mars is a female-led organization composed of a multidisciplinary, intergenerational team. Each member has a unique personal story, a remarkable academic background, and a deep passion for space and the exploration of Mars
Analog Missions
Hypatia Crews perform two-week expeditions to the Mars Desert Research Station (MDRS), a Martian analog station. During these simulations the crews engage in space-related research and simulate a day-to-day on Mars.
Research Projects
In this analog facility, our crew will conduct research to study the feasibility of a mission to Mars.
Outreach Activities
Our team has developed activities tailored for young kids, to get them excited on science and space.
If you are offered a seat on a spacecraft, don’t ask which seat, just get on!
