Hypatia Mars is a women-led organization dedicated to advancing space research and science outreach, with the goal of highlighting female talent and inspiring future generations.

GOAL #1

Advance space-related research across diverse academic fields in a Mars simulated environment

GOAL #2

Ignite curiosity and inspire young minds to explore space through science and outreach initiatives

GOAL #3

Empower women in STEM to break stereotypes and amplify their impact and visibility

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

During an analogue mission, the Hypatia crews conduct space-related research in multiple academic disciplines to assess the feasibility of future missions to Mars.

Outreach Activities

Our team creates initiatives that engage society in space exploration and inspire future generations—especially girls and other underrepresented groups—to pursue STEM careers.
