the future in feelings about what's going on in the story. instead of being discussed across the continent, de leon use africa every friday on the w, the the rod province and armenia. this is where the austrian space for him is simulating what life might one day be like on the red planet. mars the noise this boss, what sort of song? this is the newest la simulation station, fixed where a team of 6 on little gas journals who spent the month doing things that people could be doing on miles and 20 to 30 years. so this is kind of like a sneak peak into the future of the preview. often i'm an international team of analog astronauts is testing newly developed equipment

. their job is to find any possible faults and the devices that could prove fatal in space. i think it's just i think it's time for us humans to head to moss. most is the place of longing for us. kill one guy that will even be cities on moss. i'm sure the but so what we're doing here is like taking a very 1st baby steps katie, that will teach us how to crow investment one day before the health of all the scientists are doing everything in their power to ensure humanities, journey to mars does not become a suicide mission. the . this is ends brooks commercial district, where the austrian space for him is located in the astro fitness

as cannot dilemma is leading preparations for the private research institutions. next, tomorrow's mission statement. we'll take the helmets off and go through each of the census, will check the cables and see if we can improve the routine little bit. so can you get home until for me down there looking for ways to expand the space suit simulator with more functions. i'm using but it's basically like a wearable space. the space ship is able to measure a bunch of things. and starting with the astronaut c, c, g i. but it can also do simple thing was for example, where is gonna be a drink coal. go to the boss or maybe if there's one thing you want to avoid, it's sneezing inside of your space. so you're saying that that would be a mess this up and that's one that's a bit of fabric inside. so you can rob your nose on it to come because when you're wearing a space to, to call and structural noise, it's little things like this, but on really high tech. but you wouldn't realize how much easier, like and make the lives of them. little gastroenterologist, continue or else in the field. find scientists have been optimizing this space

suit for over 10 years. now the suits are to be fitted with sensor switch on the upcoming analog mission. will measure how stressful missions are for the astronaut swearing them. visa, how much success space the to me like to is one of the kind in on, if you're the it is by follow the best simulation to we have to one they'd be able to simulate the strain on people living. i'm working on models, hobbits and even valid cut them ever since. again, i've looked through a telescope as a child, he's been yearning to visit the stars on his path to fulfill that dream. he became an analog astronaut. that is an astronaut who stays on earth to conduct research on space, travel begin to from the also index. that sounds like the classic we believe the 1st humans will actually land on the red planet to in the next 20 to 30. yes. and, and you made this means as a 1st person to set foot on moss has already been bulky poor. and you could say with a generation of,

to build into the some of the who was this equipment. these will enable the most complex and dangerous to an ever i've done, which will lead us to a new well movie some of the other day. and just, i guess, to annoying the incident. good. this is called an exoskeleton. it's meant to simulate the same atmosphere rec pressure is that astronaut would experience on mars. right. on the lift, my hat. that's the neutral site technique. so my hand is lowering back down to so now when i make it fixed, i need a bit more strength and i usually would, and this is how we are able to simulate the exact physiological stress problems that a slice it will be exposed to. in moses atlas van, ever since billionaire is like a long mosque, started investing in rockets and exploiting space as a commercial market. the sector has been booming. europe has also seen the emergence of several startups eager to join in on the new gold rush in space. the

we are on our way to a former military base. stefan blue shang is the co founder and chief operating officer of rocket factory fox sports. he's currently working on a rocket that will one day bring satellites into orbit to save the money for a certified test facility. they rented an old ammunition bunker. the rocket factory prides itself and its ability to improvise. what did you guys do with this company? was this company refills? yeah, it was for the for the one on, on the hook up there and inside the f on way to name. i'm speaking test today, we're running a very important test. this test will show us the turbo pump has the performance that we need, if it's as and since they started on the rock, it won't reach orbit,

but these are key to meet all the trees. let's go, let's go and run it. an old helicopter engine is powering the pump. they hope that one day their rocket will under cut all competitors in terms of pricing to create an incredible sound. right. so there's a risk of explosion last day. so everybody has to leave on the strap load. stefan can tell that the pump is performing the way it should simply by the sound it makes the last day of the test went very well. what did they put in? that was a good investment. today we can gather data. people from the turbo pump will improve the engine will improve the we're getting closer to the point where we'll be able to reach orbits and in order to feed the rocket. factory osburg is based 30

kilometers away steph. unbelief and co found that it with a partner in 2018. when he was 33, they brought together 250 experts from 40 nations to develop a rocket that they hope to launch in the summer. the business is financed with the venture capital of investors and dedicated to keeping costs flow. the m. c is going to take there are many technical components that are all quite unique. but what we see here is a beer tank just like you'd find in a brewery and bits of beer tank in outer space. he says he got the idea from an a i source. otherwise, his engineers typically prefer using components from the automotive industry or made by a 3 d printer before founding his company, stefan blue shining study, the aerospace engineering in australia and spent 10 years working in the field.

yeah. does this, does he have the stroke? this is the heart of it all, the rocket engine. it's a miracle of modern day physics that this is even possible and i've seen the fact that space travel even works is an absolute miracle. nobody would have thought that was possible cause many mathematicians said it wasn't even possible a god's laws wouldn't permit space travel. and then a little more than 60 years ago, for the russians 1st to prove to us that we can indeed get satellites up into orbit even pets. and after that, and space travel exploded, an office depot and fedex to this. his father was an engineer. he built helicopters for stefan, wanting to go higher and select at the top discipline in the field of engineering. nothing is more difficult than building rockets. most tech enthusiast degree. it is the noblest pursuits to view covenants. i will reach outer space and then we'll

keep going with the bus no matter how small the probability will find a way to venture forth. to learn more, find to answer lives. big question spartans, why do we exist? why are we here in dc? stefan like spending his evening's tinkering at his work bench and his garage, the been getting talked to you from the one that i've seen it. and when he does with my leave, i am here every day until midnight, so that he is without it, my life would fall apart. without his work bench, i wouldn't be able to lead my life. i really need to do things like this. and i want to invest as much time as possible, advancing something that's going to bring. he's convinced that new technologies will improve our life on earth. during the day he builds rockets. and at night he

revolutionized his car engines. the most of any i've been working on this engine for a long time. i've been building it for nearly 10 years now, but it sounds crazy. and now i've reached the point where i could show for the 1st time that it actually works as well to it's an engine without any emissions, a combustion engine with rocket technology. our company build rockets like cars ensure at home build cars like rockets, the keys, and emissions free combustion engine. making the seemingly impossible possible on earth as well as in the habits. stefan is sure that human kind will become an intergalactic species. it doesn't have to be for them to be of course it's crucial that humans manage to set up a base somewhere on a different planet. one that is constantly inhabited, and that's the 1st step. this is whether mars or the moon. there are plenty of possible destination associated with mars. definitely makes

a lot of sense here. so if you send over 3000 kilometers away in the northern most reaches of sweden near the arctic circle stefan blue shank is on his way to spaceport s range. up here where there are more reindeer than people. the rocket factory is testing its rocket engines, under realistic conditions, the site leads in conducting really big tests here for over 3 years on the test. and so we do here are truly the biggest issue and, and the history of this test side. also the most dangerous that i've ever been run . you might europe's 1st mainland orbital space port is tucked away in sweden's icey forests. this is where rocket factory has rented a test field. they're here to examine

a helix engine developed an ox board. today they're conducting a so called hot fire test, meaning the engine will be ignited just like during the regular launch and then tested for its in durance. because i'm most interested in what was done and how to i'm say i want to see all the modifications made with my own eyes so that we can start today's test with a clear conscience. some tests can, can everything is pretty much ready for the test. i just have to run a few test sequences because it's very colorful that causes us the good test for the document. chief of the most, today's test can't go wrong. it needs to be concluded successfully. but what we see here is the result of what we've built over 5 years of why we have engine number 2 and engine number 3. most of the 3rd engine we've ever built in the front positions system to that means. so if anything goes wrong, then it's 5 years of work down the drain, sticky,

martin. what if anything goes wrong today? i think i might as well get up there and take a nose, dive down onto you better not. the company relies on money from his investors, their team to see positive result soon. the toward the evening. the sky is above s, range space center are closed for air traffic. the helix engine has half a 1000000 horse power. and if the hot fire test goes wrong, it could quickly become a rock at launch. the whole site is on high alert. before starting the engine, everyone has to evacuate the premises. no, it doesn't get any harder than this. you just pricing. doing this in the middle of the night in minus 30 degree celsius, that shows people to the phone, right?

people will be feeling the effects up to day through to next week, and it's not like it will all be over tomorrow. do you live in? i'm in you while some are still evacuating. others are performing final system checks. then something unexpected happens. ok. ok. so we can keep going. i know, right, as a regulator is heating, right? but it's not enough. everyone's put it under pressure now pressure that's and yet so, so let's disclose the final step before we could have gone on a day because of this. one of the cold is test days. we've ever experienced the lovely quitting for today. tomorrow we'll get it right. all right, the welcome to the real good business, the 5000 kilometers southwards. at the foot of mount otto, arrived in armenia near the town of our marsh. the mars mission of the austrian

space for him is about to commence. visitors check ins had already been set out to armenian staff members are holding down the fort and waving off on been get the meanwhile again, our dilemma is on his way to the test site of all places. why did he choose are mania? the reason that we know there are 2 logical structures here. the basically have twins on the red planet. we call them g, a similar us. another reason we came here it again or the 5 to the carefully planned. tomorrow's mission isn't running smoothly just yet. the armenian team did not manage to build up all the infrastructure on time. what are

you doing? what are you doing? there is no internet connection, which is a problem. a german austrian co board of students is struggling to communicate with the mars robot. a team from the glotts university of technology and a team from the votes boogie institute for computer science, our res, things to find solutions that are leaning just said, it's something reasonable, a gigabyte one gigabyte, it's not much really human. it should be right here. but all i can say a real slogan, real step. if establishing communication lines is all ready this hard on earth, what will it be like in space? finally, the rover from god's university starts moving nothing but we still have a long way to go to moore's. but at our university, we value researching the basics, and that means it's also important to test individual components supplement tested . the rover they've developed is meant to explore unfamiliar terrain as they spirit

remotely from their habitat the seats no easy task. and if we were to take what we have from what we know now to mosque, that would be very dangerous and probably not very productive from a scientific point of view people. that's why we need to spend time in these models like environments. and so we can learn how to best use of resources. that's very exciting. but for now, the research will have to wait a bit longer. habits had that the analog astronauts are supposed to move into a skill on finished height. as one young head of the armenian space agency says there were unforeseeable delays. now everybody is helping out wherever they can get out. does not want to talk about the emissions rocky start. yeah. after all, he'd planned everything down to the minute while some are dealing with the

unexpected circumstances. others are already in the middle of the for 8 to armenian crew members are hooking up the wireless land cables. i'm interested this past because i'm majoring can engineering and i the main goal is to have my own and fox and pacing just traits. and i think when we all for young and we are like still child, we always wants to become notes or note as we have the passion of exploring everything. and i think that's why we are still interested in. so i know it wouldn't take us on yon also has big plans during the soviet era. armenia was involved in building the sputnik satellite. the 1st of its kind and the 1st mars are over hike, hopes that this mission will bring fresh momentum to armenia. space industry to make a new be good to them. and when you look at the pictures,

so all of them should be good. yeah. there was, i don't know why that link. at the end of the day, the collapse university handed through over over to the space agency. it's a big success. one, the armenian students are excited to be a part of the back in sweden. here, temperatures have risen sharply from minus 30 degrees to minus 15 degrees celsius. it's almost like a spring saw with the freezing temperatures out of the way. the next test surely has to be successful. stuff under the shank is looking for the pressure regulator that was causing problems the day before jonathan from new zealand is taken care of . it hits the man so no worries it

and, and normally this, this works well yesterday this one didn't work that time. then we were down about minus 15 months or we'd item for today or not. i would get the phone heating vague cable. this is a heating cable that we lined up this morning on. we'll use this heating cable to make sure the whole regular later stays warm on the line that all the ceiling gaskets are working. really sad that this is why we couldn't test yesterday, or stefan brings the newly insulated pressure regulator to the test site and even installs that himself. he's not leaving anything else up to chance. it looks good now. yeah, rate to go ready for this hot fire today. the whole rocket engine was constructed on a shoe string budget. if even one component fails,

the whole thing could go up in flames and slim. it's an absolutely unique experience to be able to contribute to a project like this one. they are very few jobs out there that come with such great motivation as being able to take part in a rocket launch. and the people here are passionate about it. there's nothing more important to them in the control room group leader a whole been doings in issuing final orders tries are not able to share the no questions. all right, and every once in full concentration, all of the test has begun. the valves are open, the 64310, [000:00:00;00]

the suddenly, everything comes to a halt. another problem, the, the goal had been 160 seconds the so what i saw on the camera is that the few of the sensors flow from the, by the guess, i think that's why a few of the senses have failed the after 20 seconds to control the report of the test space travel is incredibly difficult, easy. everything is always at its limits. and that's why the engineers and we as a team, you have a path to test everything as often as possible to really push things to their

limits. avoiding the test was a security precaution. their monitoring system worked. despite all the forces working upon it, the test rig stayed on the ground. but the goal of 160 seconds of hot fire remains the above. the polar lights shine down from the same heights that stefan blushing one day hopes to reach with one of his rockets the in the business of outer space. moments of soaring highs and deep despair are never too far apart. working here require she are endless. patience. after all, we didn't learn to fly in a day. you got to take big one and these are keep all the technology surrounding rockets is so insanely complicated. we work so close to the limit that each day we

basically approach the boundaries that god or the universe created. and then you realize that these lines can't be cross or 15, but you can get much further than you originally thought a back to the armenian mountains. here the future has begun. even though the habitat still isn't ready to analog, astronauts are getting prepared for their 1st commission. once everything is constructed, the 6 crew members will spend 4 weeks isolated in these rooms. they'll have to wear a space suit any time they exit the habitat. part of the day we're just going to explore the habitat surroundings and see what the walking on the surface is. like. we'll take some pictures and drive around with the quads, so we can see how well that worked for me. it'll be

a short 1st test as also qualify for tests even though they may never reach outer space themselves. they still feel like part of the greater mission, the being the, the boss, a 5 a time the real miles mission is launched. this one and i'll probably already be retired. i might be able to say, oh look, i made those screws, you can see the my young colleagues will be in the middle of that career on the kitchen. they've already built a bridge into the future, but i think many of my colleagues feel privileged to have been able to contribute to the new ok. i simply be the, the armenia has already filled out over a 1000000 euros for the mars mission. and austria has paid a little under a 1000000. the scene gets a glimpse of just how fascinated human kind is by outer space. the guests here can barely contain their excitement as these 2 silver beings take their 1st steps. in
