Tuesday, February 28, 2023, 6:30 PM – 9:30 PM PST. Italian Innovation and Culture Hub INNOV.IT 710 Sansome St San Francisco, CA 94101. You are cordially invited to attend our next event Journey to Mars: Fireside Chat with Roberto Carlino. You will hear about Roberto's experience with the recent NASA HERA mission. You can read more about the mission's crew here.

The Human Exploration Research Analog (HERA) mission is a ground-based astronaut analog simulation run by the NASA Human Research Program to study and evaluate impacts on the crew due to isolation, remoteness, and confined habitation. This last Campaign Six (C6) simulation was a 45-day trip to Mars’s moon Phobos and back. The goal of the simulation was to perform geological operations with full communications delays in effect.
