    “The Humans on Mars Initiative is an exciting opportunity to combine my expertise in space biology with that of others in fields far apart – and ultimately, to help make Mars exploration sustainable.”

  • Lutz M?dler

    “The Humans on Mars Mindset requires an engineering vision into a world of unknowns and constrains - not far from what we have on earth, but more extreme and less complex at the same time.”

Humans on Mars

Wir untersuchen Wege zu einer nachhaltigen, menschlichen Erkundung des Mars in sieben vom Land Bremen gef?rderten Projekten. Die Projekte konzentrieren sich auf menschliche Aspekte, wie die Interaktion und Kommunikation zwischen Menschen und gemischten Mensch-Maschine-Teams, auf Habitate und Lebenserhaltungssysteme sowie auf die verantwortungsvolle Gewinnung lokaler Ressourcen für die In-situ-Produktion von Verbrauchsmaterialien und Ersatzteilen.

Materialforschung für Erde und Mars: Wie Daniel Meyer Bauteile widerstandsf?higer macht

Daniel Meyer fand seinen Weg von der Biologie zur Produktionstechnik eher zuf?llig. Heute erforscht er, wie sich Metalloberfl?chen durch gezielte Bearbeitung verbessern lassen – Wissen, das nun sogar für die Marsforschung der Uni Bremen wichtig wird.
