Traveling to Mars is not just a dream, it's now a reality… almost. Have you ever dreamed of traveling to the fourth planet from the sun and see its harsh terrain? This once-in-a-lifetime trip is now possible without even leaving our own planet.
“Your country already has its contribution in the mission to Mars. The first Soviet Mars rover was built by an Armenian.”
Now we are focused on the issue of determining the exact location. It is most likely that it will be in the area adjacent to the village of Armash. There we discovered a number of interesting rock formations that seem to be replicas of Mars. Most likely, we will concentrate and locate our station there. Says Dr. Gromer.
The mission, as such, will last here for 1 month. It means that the isolation will last for about 3 weeks. Mission participants will be involved in several specially selected scientific experiments related to robotics and the human factor in geological sciences. The connection with the center located in Austria will be tested. That center will be the country, so to speak, and the participants of the mission will be controlled from there.
Now we are here for the 2nd time to sign a memorandum of understanding between the interested parties, participants of the Armenian and Austrian Space Forum. When the entire crew of the expedition arrives here, tens of tons of equipment will be brought to Armenia. Most likely, it will happen in February. Therefore, the actual mission will begin in the 2nd week of March.
