Explore Mars Inc. is a project-oriented, international non-profit organization passionately dedicated to awareness and action resulting in successful human exploration of Mars.
Explore Mars was created to promote science and technology innovation and education with a use for Mars Exploration. Through a series of technology innovation awards, scientific symposiums and workshops, Mars analog work, technology demonstrations, and other programs, we provide a platform for scientists and "citizen scientists" to engage in meaningful space exploration research and development in the private sector.
The new focus on private sector investment in space creates a unique opportunity for 'Explore Mars'. "Not only do we plan to promote the humans to Mars cause," said Explore Mars Executive Director, Chris Carberry, "but with the right mix of prizes, programming, and projects, we can make a significant contribution in advancing the cause of sending humans to Mars."
Explore Mars Inc. was formed in 2010.
