WHAT: Mini MARS Mission in <tlhIngan Hol>

WHEN: Sept. 20.  We'll meet at a restaurant at 10:30 or 11 for lunch and
talk, then carpool to the Challenger Center at the Houston Museum of
Natural Sciences. The mission is 1-2pm.

MAX: 20 partcipants per mission.  If you can't come, watch us on the
internet.

Open Duty Stations:

Communications:  These team members will be responsible for all
messages transferred between Marsbase 1 and the spacecraft.  Skills:
reading, oral communication, high frustration tolerance.

Data:  This team will be responsible for data that must travel between
Marsbase 1 and the spacecraft.  All spacecraft stations will send data via
this vital computer linkup.  Skills: computer keyboard operations, high
frustration tolerance.

Medical Team:  The spacecraft crew will perform experiments with station
personnel to determine their response time, skin temperature and heart
rate.  Marsbase 1 will record and analyze the collected data.  Skills:
computer keyboard operation, interest in biological sciences and a good
bedside manner.

Navigation Team:  The spacecraft crew will identify Mars surface features,
determine orbital thrust to place the spacecraft into Mars's orbit and
perform an exploratory mission on Mars.  The Marsbase 1 team will send and
receive messages and use computers to locate proper latitudes and
longitudes.  Skills:  computer keyboard operation, math, geography and an
interest in astronomy.

Isolation Team:   In Marsbase 1, this team will communicate with team
members in the spacecraft, perform research using the computer and record
and analyze data.  The spacecraft team will operate the robots and perform
experiments dealing with radioactivity, meteoroids and hazardous materials.
Skills:  mechanical, math, hand-eye coordination.

Probe Team:  This spacecraft crew will build a probe, analyze the probe
after its launch and perform needed probe repairs.  They will communicate
with the probe team in Marsbase 1.  The Marsbase 1 crew will monitor probe
assembly, check data against the computer file and send probe images to the
spacecraft.  Skills:  mechanical, reading, math, high initiative.

Remote Team:  The spacecraft will analyze Meteorites and Mars rocks in a
glovebox.  Marsbase 1 will record, analyze data, and communication with the
spacecraft crew.  Skills:  Mechanical, math, observation, and an interest
in life sciences.

Life Support Team:  This spacecraft crew will perform pH tests, water and
oxygen tests; plus experiments with the solar panels.  The Marsbase 1 team
will communicate with the spacecraft, record, and analyze data.  Skills:
problem-solving, interest in the environmental and biological sciences.

Geo Team:  This spacecraft crew will identify and analyze both Mars rock
and crystal samples.  The Marsbase 1 crew will communicate with team
members in the spacecraft on how to carry out the experiments, perform
research using the computer, record, and analyze data.  Skills:
observation, measurement, and an interest in physical sciences.

Bio Team:  This spacecraft crew will identify and analyze plants and grain
samples for use in the Marsbase ! greenhouse.  The Marsbase 1 crew will
communicate with team members in the spacecraft on how to carry out the
experiments, perform research using the computer, record, and analyze data.
Skills: observation, measurement, and an interest in life sciences.
