Life On Mars Reading Activity

Hello everyone, this post is also about Mars related. Our task was to read a story of someone experiencing how to survive in Mars by going to a desert and doing some tests there, after we have read the story we have to answer 3 questions that they prepared for us to answer and share it to our blog. The answer for these questions can be found in the story, that's why we have to actually read it and understand it. 

In your own words, summarise what happens at the Mars Desert Research Centre.

So in the Mars Desert Research Centre, they had to study all about geology, biology and astronomy. 6 people stays at the station for 2 weeks. You might be wondering where they sleep? They actually sleep in some sort of building called 'hab', that is shaped like a cylinder. With bunk rooms and laboratories for them to study. Every time they had to go outside, they need to wear their spacesuits and helmets for their safety.

Why did Haritina find difficult about at the research centre? Why?

Haritina found it difficult because they have to do many tasks, like up to nine jobs.

Why do you think it is important for astronauts to practice in an environment like this before heading into Space?

It is important to practice before going to space because you might forget what your supposed to do. Like for example you accidentally forgot how to wear the spacesuit. Because it might be hard to wear it.

Thank you for reading this post, bye.
