Voyage to Mars II January 22, 2011

Fly a Public Mission at the Challenger Space Center! Become a crewmember on a 2-hour simulated space mission!! The time frame of this mission is sometime in the not-too-distant future, when humans have established a permanent base on Mars. Crew members will serve as the first crew on Mars and the relief crew en route to the planet. While on the Martian surface, the team will have collected and analyzed a great number of planetary samples and data. This information is vital to scientists for a better understanding of the planet Mars. Crew members also will have gained an appreciation for the "luxuries" of planet Earth such as air, water and food as compared to a barren planet such as Mars. Prepaid reservations are required for ALL MISSIONS. Not recommended for 2nd grade & under! 3rd and 4th graders must fly with a ticketed adult. For more information, call 623.322.2001.
