Experience Curiosity is an interactive web application developed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory to celebrate the third anniversary of the Curiosity rover landing on Mars. [1] This 3D serious game [2] makes it possible to operate the rover, control its cameras and the robotic arm and reproduces some of the prominent events of the Mars ...
The Crew Health and Performance Exploration Analog (CHAPEA) is a series of missions conducted by NASA simulating missions on Mars. It consists of three missions, the first of which began on June 25, 2023. [1] The mission is contained in a hangar at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. [2]
The mission ended on 29 August 2016, with the crew emerging to a crowd of news media and cameramen. [22] This was the longest HI-SEAS yet, and the longest NASA-funded space simulation in history, with the previous mission lasting 8 months, and before that 4 months. [22]
A NASA mission to test how living on Mars would stress and test a human crew ended Saturday, with four volunteers emerging from more than a year in a 1,700-square-foot structure.
A few years ago, NASA held a research challenge looking for a developer and game proposal for an educational, space-themed video game that could not only be extremely educational, but also fun and ...
The Mars Mission (intense or Orange Mission) includes a liftoff from the ISTC, a slingshot around the moon for a gravity-assisted boost, followed by a brief period of simulated hypersleep (to pass the lengthy time required to reach Mars), and a descent for landing on the Martian surface, where riders manually control the vehicle with a joystick.
The game was set to include single-player and team-based missions, using NASA assets such as 3D renders of Mars rovers and telescope images. NASA agreed to provide mission information and expertise, but development costs were set to be paid for by "private investments and corporate sponsorships." [5]
Project Eagle was built in the Unity (Game Engine) and utilizes design elements similar to that of the RTS game Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak, including the sensors manager view and camera systems. The Martian terrain was generated using radar data from NASA's HiRISE camera on board the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter .
