With the help of Internet Austrians "landed" Mars in the Sahara

Austria, probably the first of the small countries that have taken steps to explore Mars. The Austrian space forum (Österreichisches Weltraum Forum, OeWF), Association of experts and enthusiasts of aviation and cosmonautics, which act as a communication platform between the space sector and the public, has operated its first international flight to MARS. Conventionally, the "breaking millions of kilometers", the space Marines found themselves in the Northern Sahara near Erfoud, Morocco.



In February 2013 an international team under the auspices of the OeWF has done a lot of experiments and model experiments to better understand how to carry out a manned mission to Mars, and in what industry to develop the technology to make this mission real. As a channel of communication with Earth expedition Mars-2013 was the Internet. The world wide web was a model of satellite channels that connect Erfoud with the Center support of the expedition in Austria.
An experiment that simulated a flight to Mars, was not fun for the volunteers, the adventurers. His goal is to study the compatibility of various technologies in conditions close to Martian. Studied the ability to work in suits, with long communication lines. Moreover, it conducted a series of experiments in such fields as astrobiology, Geophysics, Geology, etc.



During the expedition, scientists searched for weak points in the design of the suit, assessed its facilities and has the space suit on performance, how well it is adapted to performance of manual operations with little things.
