Mars-500 (105 days simulation)
(Redirected from Mars-105)
The 105 days simulation is part of the Mars-500 project. During a period of 105 days a crew of 6 persons lived and worked in an isolated analog station with the interior outfit of a space vessel. The idea was a psychological simulation of the long journey to Mars. The simulation took place in Moscow (Russia).[1][2]
This simulation will be followed by a 520 days simulation late in 2009.
