- Four volunteers have emerged from a small compound at a Nasa base in Texas.
They spent more than a year living in conditions designed to simulate those on Mars.
The space the volunteers have lived in for the past 378 days is 3D printed.
Nathan Jones, Anca Selariu, Kelly Haston and Ross Brockwell entered the 1,700-square-foot enclosure back on June 25, 2023.

Last to leave Mars simulator gets to go to Mars
Just wondering what is an average age of your astronauts?
@@rostyslavadamchuk3300 we gonna do this mr beast style. Ages 1-100
@@Connor-Colyer I believe siblings and elders can stay out of the competition.. but we noted your request)
Mars does seem like the better option to be honest. This world has gone completely insane.
They could have just asked Matt Damon😂😂😂
Exactly 😆
He would have grown poop potatoes.
'they' could not afford his asking price.
Matt is to young.
They would've saved some loot
1700 square feet and four people. You have about 425 square feet to yourself. I would go nuts. I spent the first 9 months of the pandemic in a 10x10 room and literally needed psychiatric help after to cope.
No offense but you know you did that to yourself right? Im from Texas i worked full time went places did thing’s regular everyone did I didn’t get the vaccine either and im good, you let the government put you in a box you let them scare you thats worst i feel like.
425 square feet is bigger than my 2000$ a month studio in CA
@@bg2176 that sounds like a steal for CA damn!
Weak
You mighta needed psychiatric help before the pandemic if you thought the best thing to do was lock yourself in a 10x10 room. I went to work the whole time and carried on about my life. Got covid once, was sick for four days. 9 month isolation? There was something wrong with you before.
The fact that none of you remember BioDome makes me feel old.
I know biodome lol
Very impressive, 5 minutes after entering the first time I heard someone slurping their tea I’d be banging at the door screaming to be let out
You are not British then I presume. True Brits take their first sip of tea already minutes after they are born.

My friend was very lucky to train in a "mars" like enviroment: a hostile, sterile environment devoid of any intelligent life forms; "where was this nightmarish hell hole?" , I replied - "Basingstoke!" , he said.
Could also be Luton, Grimsby, etc
Slough, Swindon, Reading, Croydon, Milton Keynes...

Ech you... ,jelous co c suckers....again trying to hide experiments information from the case...where you create the enviroment for the people and colecting samples ...l grew up in the family of cosmonouts and prisioners and l am survival...
One year closed ...dont make Me laugh...l could stand on one leg in such conditions for one year ...dont embaress these cosmonouts...clouwns....
Sounds like Haringey to me😂😂😂
That’s crazy. A whole year in a simulation.
I've spent 24 years in a simulation, so no biggie.
A pretty crap-looking simulation too 😵
@@aokaze-minotaur NPC
I spent 40 years in a simulation
dude you live your whole life in a sim.
I just clicked the thumbnail so I can read the comments lol
Mars is a one way trip. That will have a different psyhoclogical toll compared to a 378 day "simulation".
Correct! A one way trip..FACT!
The constant threat of death waiting seconds away would have such a massive impact on their psychological health. That can't be simulated on earth at all. But I agree Antarctica is about as close as you can get.
NASA isn't sending anyone on a one way trip - IF (big 'if') _they_ ever go, it'll be with at least the _intention_ of returning.
(Elon Musk and his ilk, that's a different story but this simulation is NASA run)
Yeah, pretty sure any issues they had there, they were like "it's only going to get a lot worse from here." 😂
the experiment was monitoring them while inside not when they exit. and it may not be that psychologially different if the parameters of this test around communication were true. as to which you have no infomation about.
Rookie numbers I been doing this for 5 years so far
As far as getting an idea of the psychological effect of being there the only way to get as close as possible is if they don't allow them to leave no matter what even for emergencies. The whole time they were in there they knew in the back of their minds if something went very wrong they could just leave. But there's no way they would do that so the only true test would be going there for real
You seem to have discovered that simulations aren't reality. Prepare for riches !
what a moot point 😂
That’s the point 😂
@@anonymes2884 There are things you can simulate that are more or less equivalent to the real thing but when it comes to simulating a Mars trip it's so far removed from the real thing that it's not a very good representation of what the experience would really be like
They went in looking 20 years old.
You think they released the tention?
Oh definitely they were smashing lol
skipped the video and came straight to this here....
Purpose can only mask the desperation for social interaction, or the need for isolation, for so long. Mars is a hell of a long ride.
They could only be in high spirit because they're still on earth and know they can walk out and be next to family in no time. But when u r really on Mars, it's not like you could just get a plane ticket and fly back. That scenario is much worse.
I broke in there dressed as a martian to make the simulation realistic but I guess they didn't agree with that idea because I had to spend time in a simulated jail.
Mr.Beast : LAST TO LEAVE SIMULATOR GETS MARS
Meanwhile most of us are simulating having a life on Earth.
Why would they choose older people
Honest question, wouldn’t the lower gravity be one of the biggest issues on Mars, but hard to simulate that atm though
Mars is pretty close to 30 percent of earth g but yes, you can't simulate that. Thankfully the people who have been on the issue for the last 20 years have helped us learn the long term affects of low g
@@penguin44ca yes roughly 30% earth gravity but my point was how can one simulate that for long periods of time, I’m not sure it’s possible atm
0:58 THAT, is meant to simulate Mars?! 😂😂
Budget cuts
What, you mean to tell me that isn't what Mars looks like?
You are confusing the intent of the simulation. it's not meant to stimulate biological conditions. Just psychological.
@@elusiveanmol- *simulate. Stimulate is completely different...😅
She certainly seemed to be relieved to be outta there! lol
“Kidney failure and arterial shrinkage” “irreversible physical injuries have been observed in control group”
what is this from do you have a link?
@@retiredhamster7003 I thnk they are mixed up and confused. It was revealed long-duration space travel, ie, to Mars, can impact the structure of astronauts’ kidneys, but there was nothing like that observed in those volunteers - because they were on EARTH. Kidney Dialysis however might be a necessity upon arrival after a long term trip to Mars
Yes I too would like to see a source please
It’s from eating a vegan diet 😢😢. Humans need meat in their diet
@@user-sp1gw8gz3o Humans can live meat free as long as they source the vitamins, minerals, proteins and other nutrients that meat would normally provide.
Now that’s dedication.
Looks like we're heading to a Star Trek like future.
As great as this is to help us, they knew they were on Earth, they had an end-date to look forward to, and it was only for 1 year.
This doesn't reflect how people would actually react when they're dedicating the rest of their lives to living on Mars in these conditions without any end in sight.
Of course. But this was a good experiment to identify and determine how to deal with the profound loneliness that extreme isolation causes.
@@stonehengemaca That's why I said it's great to help us but it barely touches the surface of when actual loneliness and issues occur.
@@xcviij7045 The hardest part will be the trip to Mars. Once they're on Mars, they're going to have a great sense of purpose.
A Mars a day helps you work rest & play. Who remembers that phrase? 😂
@JonnyGertmunger Did he? I can remember it from when I was a kid and it was a TV advert. 👍
mY TEETH-
I do and I havent seen a MARS bar in decades…
@@buzz5969 They’re still readily available in most stores
@@buzz5969 It was replaced by the Snickers with Almonds.
no altered gravity simulation? what's the point.
i find astrophysics sooo interesting ngl
The 22 minute communication lag means that astronauts on Mars will be unable to have phone calls and video calls with Earth.
I think that’s the least of the problems
@@CricketEngland not for the first generation. Psychological impact of permanently changing time zones to a different planet and not ever returning will likely be very stressful. Think about it, that delay also means no such thing as FaceTiming. The last time they spoke to their families will truly be the last. Mind is just as important as body.
@@reachthesingularity more so in my opinion….without a sound mind what good is the body?
Video journals/"letters" will still be possible, but yes the next generation of pioneers will essentially have to abandon everything they know and love on Earth; perhaps, it will be no different from what the first settlers of the Western world experienced.
that's true, but also consider that up until like what, 100years ago, the same lack of communication with your people would occur just by leaving your town.
i think we need to accept prolonged isolation isnt a weird thing anymore there are people who would actually prefer to be put inside a room for a year alone. like myself.
Holy Jonestown. No amount of cool aid is getting NASA to Mars
I don't think a 17,000 sq ft living space should be called a "small compound".
Their getting paid!!! Thats not a sacrifice!
There are lots of ignorant remarks, but I'm not surprised.
Did they grow potatoes with their poop?
Mmmm pooptatoes.
you gonna let Russia or China get there first?
Pooptatoes yummy.
No. They used your poop.

I've lived in a truck for about a year with a co-driver, driving long haul. Nearly everything about him grew to annoy me. Afterwards, I never wanted to speak to him ever again. I think I see that same look on the faces of this crew 😩
The anchor is like super excited about life.
This is the closest elon musk will ever take anyone to Mars 😂
That's insane how they went to Mars and back
Nasa went full Mr.Beast 😂
There's nothing there but rust and some ancient water.
They returned from MARS back to a "brave new world" called EARTH run by a bunch of LUNATICS. 🌚🌚🌚
MARS will be led by a bunch of cultist before your future grandchildren realizes it.
They like: Wow, the Rushin' army is a complete joke and is losing lol
Interesting psychology experiment. The biggest barrier is our attachment to home.
Imagine coming out of lockdown and thinking "Let's do it all again... for science..."
Mr beast. Challenge
What lockdown??? Oh yah they TRIED a lockdown here in 2019 but It certainly didnt work. Most didnt get jabbed either. Freedom, once you lose it, you’re never getting it back!🇺🇸🍻✌🏻
Were they carrying mobiles , was the internet available
They could communicate with a 20min delay
Bet they had some sort of pact to not talk about the fuck up shit they were doing in there.
This looks like the Willy Wonka Experience but make it Mars
Holy shit that’s awesome.
They done this back in the 90s it was called bio dome
Wait until the Real Mission starts.
NOT!! There won’t be a REAL MISSION TO MARS It’s all BS. ALL A SLUSH FUND.
This stuff is all just one big pipe-dream; no human will set ever set foot on Martian soil; ever, I guarantee it! 100% chance of total worldwide societal collapse by 2042
Ai robots and clones
Crimes against humanity. Yah. Yah. No exaggeration.
Exactly, really seperated from reality and earth.
This was just basically covid lockdown....oouuuu....
So I thought to be an astronaut you had to fit ? COVID boy with the mask on says it all.
they could have put a bit of effort into the outside habitat bit.... looks a bit grim
Legends
Good to hear their eyes didn't pop out like Arnold's did.
How did they simulate Mars’s lower gravity?
They didn't and why would they? This simulation was about 4 people being locked in a small compound for a year. Gravity really isn't an important factor here.
Very cool.😎
For extra realism and immersion, the volunteers were blasted with radiation equivalent to that on Mars daily!
Why go to mars nothing and nobody is there waste of time and money 😢
Mr. Beast: i'll give you $10,000 for everyday you spend outdoors!
NASA Scientists: *imma about to ends this mans entire career*
For some reason pieces like this attract way too much sarcasm and cynicism, and it makes the comments section quite predictable and boring to read. Seems to be anything where anyone is trying to achieve anything gets this response from a certain type of person. Even worse if it's anything to do with the environment.
We did Bio-dome and all the news wants to talk about is the election...
bet you didnt think i could find you holmes
Some researcher at nasa bet another researcher that he could bullshit four ppl into living in a box full of sand for over a year without even paying them… and he won that bet.
I´ve been living in a simulation since my birth. get me out of here.
succeeding with a human colony on Mars is a pipe dream....any traveler going there is going on a one way trip to hell, albeit a cold hell
I’d who did the math but 270 is not 365 lmaooo 😂 ya can’t just leave mars after 270 days bruhhh
Real life bio-dome...dope
I’m surprised they didn’t beg to be let back in :)
Uncle solarium
I want to see an episode of Family Guy and South Park on this 😂
Hope they were paid well
I volunteer…….the peace and quiet would have been nice!! No stupidity (yet) although give it time humans will destroy mars too…
I feel like NASA budget could have afforded a better Mars simulation.
what happened to the fifth?
Why is that dude wearing a mask?
lol. Love the door
Hello welcome to the outside world....WOOOOOAH! SHOWER TIME!
She thinks they’re still on Mars 😂
Listen to the way she speaks.
Future mission to Mars my you people are so gullible.
For what? NASA's artemis rocket isn't even reliable enough to get a crew to the moon
This is for the possible future. In the next few years they plan to have the rocket done by then and maybe we’ll land on the moon again.
Didn't Elon promise us we would already be colonizing Mars by now?
My sincere thanks for sharing it.
Real life bio dome
So what ,,, people spend most of the day on there stupid phones and computers,,, it should be a piece of cake for the younger generation thats all they do anyway
what yall think they been doin in there
Basically spending the time it takes to reach Mars a human at this time would struggle to lift there arms 🙈
Basically is the new literally...
1 YEAR~!
Wow lol what a waste of a year. They probably looked 30 before the jumped in the sim. Now they look shrivled.
we are literally, thousands of years away from the cool stuff, what the fuck am I doing here at this time and this place, wrong place wrong time, I'm even confused of my purpose sometimes
Was there a diary room and challenges 😂
Day 145 in the Mars House: The crew have run out of ketchup and Zara has decided to "science the shit out of this".
Samanta means
that if somebody on Earth is living in Mars style it means that,sooner or later ,somebody will visit Mars to live as it is on Earth.
WASTE OF MONEY BRUH
If us humans didn’t engage in war for the last 300,000 years, we’d easily been on Mars a thousand years ago
Actually, a lot of technological advances have some through wanting to create advanced weapons and machinery. You cannot say what you've said for sure.
Now try this living in Antarctica
wait so they went to mars on earth? HOW???
Welcome back to earth.
They will never go to Mars, why would you go to a dead planet?
Antarctica is a place people go…
For the lolz.
Been there done that😂
if thats what they are basing the mission off its already doomed
After we have made Earth unliveable , I guess the richest people will be able to live on Mars.
