View source for Mars-500 (520 days simulation)

The '''520 days simulation''' is a planned part of the [[Mars-500]] project. During an overall period of 520 days a crew of 6 persons will live and work in an isolated ''analog station'', consisting of 5 modules, simulating a space vessel, a landing module, a Martian environment, etc.

The simulation includes a 250 day Earth-to-Mars flight period, a 30 day surface mission and a 240 day Mars-to-Earth flight period. The simulation takes place in the ''Ground-based Experimental Complex (GEC) of SSC RF - Institute of biomedical problems of RAS'' in Moscow (Russia).<ref>[http://www.imbp.ru/Mars500/Mars500-e.html  SSC RF - Institute of biomedical problems of RAS]</ref>
