Explore Mars was created to advance the goal of sending humans to Mars within the next two decades. To further that goal, Explore Mars conducts programs and technical challenges to stimulate the development and/or improvement of technologies that will make human Mars missions more efficient and feasible. In addition, to embed the idea of Mars as a habitable planet, Explore Mars challenges educators to use Mars in the classroom as a tool to teach standard STEM curricula. Explore Mars will host its second annual Humans to Mars (H2M) Summit on April 22-24, 2014 at George Washington University in Washington, DC. We will bring together space enthusiasts and experts of all ages to discuss the possibility of putting the first humans on Mars and how to achieve this goal. More than 1,000 U.S. schools and tens of thousands of individuals worldwide will view the conference online. Visit H2M2014.exploremars.org for more information.
