On Novermber 4th, 2011, six brave men emerged from a capsule in which they had been sealed for a year and a half in an effor to simulate a real Mars expedition. The goal of the program was to see how the human can physically and mentally survive the long journey to Mars.
The experiment was carried out by a crew of six European Space Agency members at the Institute of Biomedical Problems in Moscow, Russia.
The crew lived on for a full 520 days in a fully self sustained environment and even simulated putting on space suites and a landing on the surface of Mars.
Would you go through with such an experiment, locking yourself in a vault for a fill year and a half?
