NASA shows off Mars-like habitat, ahead of second year-long mission to explore Red Planet
NASA is preparing for its second year-long Mars-simulated mission in a 3D-printed habitat in Houston, Texas. The space agency gave media a tour of the Crew Health and Performance Exploration Analog, or CHAPEA, at the Johnson Space Center on Aug. 22, 2025. In October, a crew of four people will spend a year inside the 1,700-square-foot habitat, isolated from loved ones and participating in the exercises, job duties and daily life expected of a future crew exploring Mars – a goal NASA has set for the 2030s. In September, NASA plans to announce the new CHAPEA crew, which will comprise of people with “astronaut-like” backgrounds and qualities.
