    “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.

Exzellenzcluster "Die Marsperspektive"

Der Exzellenzcluster "Die Marsperspektive" baut auf der jahrzehntelangen wissenschaftlichen Expertise in zwei Forschungs- und Transferschwerpunkten des Landes Bremen auf: Materialwissenschaften und ihre Technologien sowie Luft- und Raumfahrt. Seit 2021 vereint und erweitert die "Humans on Mars"-Initiative dies um die Bereiche Verhaltenswissenschaften und Kommunikationstechnik zu einem interdisziplin?ren Konsortium.
