About theĀ Mars Desert Research StationĀ (MDRS), owned and operated by the Mars Society, is a full-scale analog facility in Utah that supports Earth-based research in pursuit of the technology, operations, and science required for human space exploration. The purpose of the MDRS project is to develop the key knowledge required to prepare for human exploration of Mars. It aims to develop field tactics based on environmental constraints (e.g. being required to work in space suits), to test habitat design features and tools, and to assess crew selection protocols. Although much warmer than Mars, the desert location was selected because of its remoteness and Mars-like terrain.
