I was reading an artical this morning found initresting.
Looking for life on mars in Australian's outback
Australian scientist are planning to build a "space station" in remote outback to simulate the conditions future human explores could face on Mars.
It will be 118ft long and include, cabins, generators, airlocks and docking hatches plus a garage to house "rover" to explore the surrounding area.

Hi Wendy,
Just goes to show how similar planets Earth and Mars are.

Very interesting, reminds me of Mars Dome on my favourite programme, Babylon Five!

'Similar to Mars' yes some arid very cold, perma frost areas of Earth are 'similar ' to Mars, in their lack of liquid water, but that's all. I haven't seen the article, but I doubt if they can do much simulation that is useful and that can't be done outside the laboratory.
