The student program enables students at the upper-undergraduate and
graduate levels to participate as crew members in two-week-long
immersive, full-scale simulations of living and working on the moon
and Mars at the Mars Desert Research Station. The Spaceward Bound
crew rotations at MDRS take place from October to March each year.
They are currently planned through 2010.

Applications for these expeditions are available through The Mars
Society, which established and operates the Research Station. Each
Spaceward Bound MDRS participant receives a $500 stipend toward
travel expenses.
