Do you have what it takes to live on Mars?
Arizona Science Center proudly welcomes SIMOC
The exhibit, which opened in November 2024, allows guests to design and test a Mars habitat of their own creation. Guests are tasked with configuring essential components for survival, including carefully calculated food rations, efficient life support systems, reliable solar panels and batteries, and comfortable crew quarters. They must also design a greenhouse with thoughtfully selected plant varieties to purify the air and produce sustenance. Once these elements are set, guests activate the simulation model to assess whether their astronauts can thrive—or if critical adjustments are still needed to secure their survival.
