Martian living
EGLIN AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. -- A hangar here sprouts space habitats as more than 250 local fifth-graders prepare to embark on a simulated trip to Mars. The students planned their space habitats during six weeks of study about space, particularly Mars. The students spent the first half of the field trip constructing their cells, which are made of thick plastic sheets taped together and inflated by fans. Once they finished, the teams entered their habitats to eat lunch -- only 22 ounces of food per astronaut -- and discuss key considerations of living on Mars, including communication, food, waste, transportation, air use and recreation.
