More Albeřice good and different

Probably everyone knows about the pavilion "Cosmos" at ENEA. Many have heard of his plight after the collapse of the USSR. Embodiment of the Soviet triumph in space, he turned into a faceless hangar used for storage and sale of garden and entrenching tools. Only in depth, on the far wall of the pavilion, hung shamefully hung with canvas portrait of Yuri Gagarin.

However, in 2012, the left wing of the pavilion rented faceless organization under the name "Park development." But they began to build what then was called "Interaktorium terraforming Mars."






Unlike Mars One, they do not promise a mission to Mars to 202 year ... but they offer to play in it. For a year they built a pavilion layout of the first manned scientific base, which, according to the plot of the game, should appear on Mars in 2050. This "Mars-Tefo" more like a station MDRS Martian Community USA.

Project database at ENEA created in collaboration with Russian scientists, and it is equipped with almost all the necessary elements: scientific compartment for analysis of Martian samples collected; command block for communication with Earth, Mars rovers and remote communication with artificial intelligence database. For power stations provided reactor unit and the solar panel. Complemented base diorama of the Martian surface, "Jumper" and "orbital station».



The nuclear reactor is modeled very realistically, you can manually replace the depleted fuel rods to hold, which requires to don the suit. But the pride of "Mars-tefo" is a software that allows power to all the Martian station or bring the reactor to a nuclear explosion. Certainly no radioactive material is not there, but the power supply inside of the base depends on the configuration of the reactor and power system control.



Solar panels have only to monitor but also to manage the database depends on energy.

In scientific compartment has a remote control panel with unmanned probes that conduct exploration and deliver samples to the base for analysis. The devices are also virtual, but the natural geological samples delivered. Unfortunately not with this Mars and even meteorites, but the breed selected related topics that have found these rovers. Samples are delivered in sealed containers, and open only to himshkafu with "sleeves" are known in numerous sci-fi movie about viruses.



Relationship with the land, as expected, is delayed, and in real mode, you can communicate with artificial intelligence, and try to straighten his brains, when that goes the roof. This disease AI known since "Space Odyssey 2001" and pursues almost all sci-fi poizvedeniya.

Separate adventure - taxiing rover. Take the helm Curiosity, is possible only in "Mars-tefo."

Unfortunately, no one has created a virtual model of the Mars rovers domestic terrain. But it is a question of availability of drawings devices necessary for 3D-modeling.

Marsonavtov can play for three hours, and includes tours of the station, combined with popular scientific lectures and master classes. On the tour you can not just walk through the station, but also to get acquainted with the details of the study of Mars during the last century, learn about spacecraft that have studied and are studying the red planet, and the most recent scientific data that come from there.



In appearance, the description, the "Mars-Tefo" is another attraction, of which there are many at ENEA, and an attempt to capitalize on the now fashionable Martian theme. But realistically earn in Russia on the popularization of science is very difficult. As a positive example only, perhaps, Moscow Planetarium, which, however, is the property of Moscow and the bankrupt can not in principle. Example with the closing of Petersburg "Umnikuma" shows that the popularization of science and knowledge of the world does not promise super profits, and even yield to self-sufficiency - a remarkable achievement.

Create a "Mars-Tefo" not only as a business start-up, but pursued and more ambitious and noble goals. Those who finance and pulls this project, guided by the ideas inspiring a new generation Russian Mars space explorers.



The previous generation, who began the conquest of space, grew by science-fiction books, but now they have strong competition from video games and movies. Therefore, the "Mars-Tefo" offers to play in Mars not at the computer, and in conditions close to reality. Unlike Space Museum, where you can only look and not touch, the new word "interaktorium" implies that one can touch, steer, Georgia, customize, save, in other words to play.



True to the Game "Mars-Tefo" reminiscent of the plot of the film "Gravity": all constantly breaks, explodes, artificial intelligence is going crazy, alien viruses make their way to the base, were falling meteorites reactor overheats ... But this is a feature of the genre, if not continuous force -mazhora, it becomes boring. Only the list of events varies depending on the age of the players. "Improvisation" is carefully prepared in advance igrotehniki. They say play marsonavtov had already both children and adults.



Clearly, a single "Mars" that lurks in the depths of ENEA, physically unable to reach any meaningful percentage even Moscow youth. Therefore, the project originally envisaged interaktoriuma "cloning Mars" nationwide franchises. And recently passed a landmark for "Mars-Tefo" event - opening new Mars base Nefteyugansk. Here space education of the younger generation took up the local authority, so self-management took part in the creation station. Troopers Moscow "Martians" landed in the Khanty, established base of local game technicians prepared and conducted demonstration lessons.



Now they are ready to expand the network of Martian bases in Russia, are just waiting for orders from private investors or regional authorities.

I hope there are in the country, and the goal of "Mars-tefo" in incubating new queen, Gagarin, Armstrong and the mask will be implemented.
