Background
How can we bring the sense of ‘home’ with us the day we punch a one-way ticket to Mars to colonize the planet?

Making Mars homely

In collaboration with LunAres Research Station, Maria Anna Jedryszek has studied the stories told by people who have lived in other extreme environments, for example aboard a submarine or under strict quarantine conditions. Based on their experiences, she has developed a personal ‘Memory Capsule’ to bring along the safe and secure feeling, scent or memory of home.
