OBJECTIVE:  I will work with my team to identify significant stressors on astronauts journeying to Mars

WORD FOR TODAY:

Please quickly discuss with your team our BIG 5 items that we absolutely, positively, MUST have in order to survive on Mars

═══════════════════════════

Imagine you were on a 7 or 8 month journey to Mars. What part of your ship would be your favorite?

Why?

Now let's take a gander at the actual Starship capsule design

Does watching that change your mind at all?

═══════════════════════════

Let's brainstorm some ideas of "significant stressors" HERE

Let's rank those now

═══════════════════════════

Think about a time when you were sick, feeling really crummy and all you want to do is sleep.

Now imagine you are in Space! ICK!

 

 

Now please determine with your team how to divide up THIS interesting article about getting sick in space.

EVERYONE going to MARS will need "Advanced" First Aid (at a minimum)

 

Now we'll split into larger groups of 5 or 6. Each person will choose the PRIMARY position they would like to have in a Mission to Mars

We'll take a few moments to discuss

Now each person will suggest a secondary expert position

Now go online and see how well your selection 'match up' to actual selections/suggestions for a crew of that size.
