walks that happened on tuesday and it's a nine month journey home when a pushout from the european space agency explains what they hope to learn. if we have to assume no it's this is. from russia and.

live together in a closed isolated environment and the scientists on both sides both in the european space agency and in the russian space agency they see. before a real flight to mars is even possible hundreds and hundreds of tests and experiments like this one have to be held. but the experiment mostly focuses on medical and biological problems we're trying to better understand how a human behaves in these unusual conditions when a small group of people works together in a contained environment i think is very important at the mars five hundred mission as an international crew or a single entity and they became a real crew perhaps in the first month of flight they were very efficiently they've managed down emergency situation and we hope they'll be as efficient june these experiments on the surface of mars that you. can you imagine living without t.v. radio or the internet in almost complete isolation in a simulation of whites to the red planet it's something personally really hard for me to even imagine to be able to live a life like that for five hundred twenty days but these guys have been s

can now get some expert insight from bringing a cell he joins us from moscow and us from the european space agency thanks for being with i hope we can get a closer look at some of the pictures of what happened earlier today can you just explain to us what we're seeing there so we have to assume. this is. from russia. from china doing their second walk and you see a simulated martian surface which is no more than forty square meters and what we see of the two when the space suits which are produced close to what we would expect for real martian martian mission and what the two were doing is also what we would expect first humans doing on mars namely collecting soil samples and preparing them to pretty simple speak home could you just take us through what exactly we're seeing right now there some kind of cord that if we could just bring those pictures back you know we have the cord which are ordinary people that don't understand of course. this is all for me if the cord which of course would not be there or on the real mars and the core supplies to us to know it's. electricity and also if there are

well exactly since this is quite a well developed international experimented with the european space agencyaking poured with russia taking part actually this. these volunteers they include a chinese man to europeans and three russians so it's a great international experiment it's also quite. real in terms of some of the conditions which are being simulated these men are a locked inside this experimental module just left with communication between themselves and with mission control but even the messages which they received from mission control vig come with a deal way so this is more of a psychological experiment since obviously they cannot simulate zero gravity and that many other things which can happen during a real flight plan and some emergency situations are also planned during the course of this experiment and really it's really expected to show how people work together to live together in a closed closed environment almost isolated from the rest of the world and it's a really long time as well we're five hundred days five hundred twenty days to be exact and if this is the moment tha

take a look at to of astronauts from the european space agency will touch down on mars. this is all part of an experiment to create a psychological conditions of an actual trip to the planet. six astronauts have been sealed inside a mock spacecraft since last june. over the weekend to spend time a large sand covered arena and attempted to replicate mars. the journey will end in november after 500 days of seclusion. take a look at the new top bag. the grocery baggers faced off at the 2011 best baker championship. crystal's mets beat out competitors from 21 states, or strategy was -- was all about keeping the weight even amusing to hands. smith is heading the $10,000 and baking rights. >>jacqueline: of live look outside of our roof cam, the rain has admitted to san francisco yet. it will vote. we'll talk about what they're coming up just after the break. ♪ [ female announcer ] starbucks via is planted the same... ♪ ...harvested the same... ♪ ...and roasted the same as our other premium coffees. it only makes sense it would taste the same. so, try it for yourself. buy a pac

towards a mission to the red planet because scientists on both sides both in european space agency and in the russian space agency they say that before a real flight to the red planet it's possible hundreds and hundreds of various tests and experiments are needed to be conducted this is definitely a massive psychological test for these people since these six men are locked in this scientific model absolutely isolated from the rest of the world with the limited communication even messages from mission control or received would be delays simulating a real spaceflight and actually a russian the russian space agency has now announced that the see a real flight to mars possible in around twenty years so that kind of gives some time for some more tests of but it's just really important who are these scientists to see how people can live together and work together most importantly in isolated simulated conditions there even beam being given. simulations of emergency situations which can also turn up during a real space flight so there is no t.v. no internet no radio use only the sixth of them

a unique project that simulates and nineteen month mission and iran had to shell from the european space agency explain to the meaning of being a texan. we have to assume know what this is like sunder from russia. from china doing their second walk and you see a simulated martian surface which is no more than forty square meters and what we see of the two were in the in their space suits which are pretty close to what we would expect for real marshall martian mission and what the two are doing is collecting soil samples and preparing them to bring this simple spec home is near the cord which of course would not be there on the real mars and that core supply used to us to know it's. electricity and also with air and of course in the real martian mission that all would be in the big pick or two us notes carry on their break they are doing very well so. everybody was really surprised that everything is going so bell everything one of the reasons for that is that they have this really very interesting goal of simulating the first wark on the mars and what we can see now is that the two are going to

hundred twenty day experimental nation and led killings today by al he is the heads of the european space agency have an emission here in russia thank you very much for joining us now we seen some of the pitches that. coming three to date the cosmonauts carrying out the space will not the second all kids in it they had the first one on monday to take in a second he taught us a bit more about what they're hoping to achieve and what they've been doing. so that's really the second walk. correctly it's the half way sort of the whole experiment they have been there since the container and they're shipped to mars sort of. since june and now we have this three mass walks the first one monday this is the second one and the simulation is the three guys out of this crew of six are sort of in a ship which went away from the mothership to mars we simulate three mars walks each about two hours really how humans would behave on mars of course we don't you cannot simulate the gravity situation on mars where everything else is pretty similar to what we would expect on mars so after all that time such they proba

part of a unique project that simulates an eighteen month mission and run a shell from the european space agency explain the meaning of pain. we have to us we know it's this is xander from russia. from china doing their second last walk and you see a simulated martian surface which is no more than forty square metres and what we see are the two when the space suits which are produced close to what you would expect for your martian mission and what the two were doing is collecting soil samples and preparing them to bring the symbols because it is me if the cord which of course would not be there well in the real mars and their. supplies to us to know it's. electricity and also. and of course in the real martian mission that all would be in the big pick or to us to north korea on their. they're doing very well . everybody was really surprised that everything is going to go their thing one of the reasons for that it's that they have a really really interesting goal. simulating the first wark on the mars and what we can see you know is that the two are going to take a break in this special chairs be

part of a unique project that simulates an eighteen month mission when a purcell from the european space agency explained the meaning of the imitation. so we have to assume no it's this is. from russia and from china doing their second moscow walk and you see a simulated martian surface which is no more than forty square meters and what we see the two when the in their space suits which are pretty so close to what we would expect for real martian martian mission and what the two are doing is also what we would expect the first humans doing on mars namely collecting soil samples and preparing them to bring the samples back home if the cord which of course would not be there or on the real mars and their core supplies to us to know it's. with electricity and also with air and of course in a real martian mars mission that all would be in the big pic to us you know it's scary and there are. they are doing very well so. everybody was really surprised that everything is going so well everything one of the reasons for that it's. really very interesting goal of simulating the first walk on the mars and

that happen on tuesday and it's a nine month journey home we're now at this hour from the european space agency explains what they hope to learn. we have to assume no it's this is. from russia. from china doing their second most walk and you see a similar to martian surface which is. no more than forty square meters and what you see you know the two were in the in their space suits which are produced close to what you would expect for your most of the martian mission and what the two were doing is. soil samples and preparing them to bring the some of those big is near the cord which of course would not be there well in the real mars in their core supplies to the to us to know it's. electricity and also if they're. and of course in the real martian mission that all would be in the big picture there to us an old scary and there are. they are doing very very well so. everybody was really surprised at the everything is going so well and it's thing one of the reasons for that it's that they have a really really interesting goal of simulating the first wark on the morris' and what we can see you know

the european space agency explains what they hope to learn. we have to assume. this is. from russia. from china doing their second walk and you see a simulated martian surface which is. not more than forty square metres and what we see of the two when the space suits which are produced close to what we would expect for real martian martian mission. were doing is collecting soil samples and preparing them to bring this. is me or if the cord which of course would not be there will only real mars in the core supplies to the to us to know it's. electricity and also. and of course in the real martian mission that all would be in the big pick or two us notes carry on there or. they're doing very well that. everybody was really surprised that everything is going to go everything one of the reasons for that it's. really very interesting goal of simulating the first war on the most. you can see you know is that the two are going to take a break in this special chairs because each of the space you would see is aboard. and also if you would expect a real mission or nurse we could e

from the european space agency explains what they hope to learn. we have to assume this is. from russia. from china doing their second. and you see a similar martian surface which is. not more than forty square meters and what we see you know the two were in the in their space suits which are produced close to what we would expect for real motion of motion mission. were doing. soil samples and comparing them to printers and those because if we're if the cord which of course would look very well on the real mars and the. supplies to the to us to know it's. electricity and also. and of course in the real martian mission that all would be in the big pic or two us notes carry on there. they're doing very well. everybody was really surprised that everything is going to go everything one of the reasons for that it's that they have really really interesting goal of simulating the first wark on the morris' and what you can see you know is that the two are going to take a break in this special chairs because each of the space you would see is aboard thirty five killer gone. also if y
