Human space exploration typically requires considerable teamwork involving multiple disciplines in science and engineering. Effective and efficient field systems and information flow with the support teams are paramount for mission success. Moreover, human-robotic teams will be crucial in future Mars […]
Crewed missions to Moon and Mars are foreseen for the coming decades, posing new challenges for human movement science, particularly regarding space suit design, mobility, and motor control in different gravitational environments (Belobrajdic et al., 2021). The risk for operational […]
Telomeres are essential structures located at the ends of linear chromosomes in eukaryotes. In humans, they consist of short TTAGGG repeats and are associated with various proteins [ref]. They play a critical role in maintaining the structural integrity of chromosomes […]
Surprising Outcome of Mars Analog Mission AMADEE-24 Scientists are uncovering new insights into how isolation in simulated space environments can affect human cellular health. In a recent study conducted as part of the Austrian Space Forum’s (OeWF) AMADEE-24 Mars mission […]
The iROCS – Intuitive Rover Operation and Collecting Samples project focuses on developing and deploying a robotic system to assist analog astronauts during the AMADEE-24 Mars simulation in Armenia. The robot plays a pivotal role in supporting extraterrestrial-like missions by […]
After the Mars simulation is before the Mars simulation, or to be more precise: the data collected from the AMADEE missions is the centrepiece of our scientific research. AMADEE is our flagship research programme and forms the framework concept for […]
On April 05 2024 the Austrian Space Forum (OeWF) concluded its 4-week Mars Analog Mission AMADEE-24 that had been hosted by the Armenian Aerospace Agency. The analog astronauts and supporting teams in Armenia and Austria overcame some challenging situations to […]
Day 25: 05 April 2024How time does fly! With a heavy heart we say Good Bye to our test site in Armenia, overlooked by the majestic Mount Ararat. We will now start packing our equipment, rovers and spacesuit-simulators. Our thanks […]
International Crew of Six Analog Astronauts will emulate the Exploration of the Red Planet Following intensive preparations, the 14th Mars Analog Mission of the Austrian Space Forum (OeWF) starts today. AMADEE-24 is carried out in cooperation with the Armenian Space […]
Livestream on March 12th AMADEE-24, the 14th Mars Analog Mission of the Austrian Space Forum (OeWF) conducted in cooperation with the Armenian Space Agency, will start on March 12, 2024. The very valuable and mostly unique mission equipment has already […]
