EVA STATS: 232 hours, 16 minutes on 84 EVAs
A key element to human space exploration is training and the use of analogue research sites. This page highlights some of my experiences in Mars simulations in Utah, USA at the Mars Desert Research Station (MDRS) and in the high Canadian Arctic on Devon Island, Nunavut at the Flashline Mars Arctic Research Station (FMARS). This page was reconstructed from my older site (Note: Some FMARS 2007 links may not be available).
Note: I was the Commander of ISU's all-alumni MDRS Crew 188 Jan/Feb 2018. Info will be added soon(ish).

| Auclair on Castle Mercury - I took this photo (my favourite of the mission) of Simon Auclair on our last EVA in the high Canadian Arctic on Devon Island during our 100-day Mars simulation at the Flashline Mars Arctic Research Station. FMARS is visible in the high resolution version of this photo, 20 km away in the distance. Photo was taken August 2007. |
