Six students have simulated a Mars mission, while dozens more operated a mission control center in Atlanta.
Earlier this month, six students went to Mars. For 10 days, they conducted experiments, managed limited resources, and lived in isolation while learning what it's like to be an astronaut. Except they were not actually on Mars. They were at Titan Ranch in Arkansas, participating in the inaugural mission of Georgia Tech's Southeast Analog (SEA), the first completely student-led analog astronaut program in the United States.
