Hypatia Mars
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.
