HI-SEAS 3 is off to the races! The crew will have had entered the Mars Habitat at approximately 4:30 pm HST today, after completing their geological training among the world’s largest volcanoes in Hawaii. This crew will endure a 240-day mission, as long as the two previous HI-SEAS missions put together. The goals of HI-SEAS 3 follow closely on the heels of the previous mission: studying the isolation effects of a long-duration mission on (simulated) Mars.
Since the last crew felt a strong connection to our social media, I thought it would be nice to have a central repository for each crew member’s information.

Ed Fix and Michael Castro will be filling in if there are any problems that crop up during the mission. When I find their sites I will update this section (or promote them to crew).
My best wishes for the crew as they begin their journey today! I will be following along very closely.
