THE FIRST PERSON TO VISIT MARS IS IN SCHOOL TODAY. WILL IT BE YOU?
Generation Beyond is a first of its kind, national educational program designed to inspire the next generation of innovators, explorers, inventors and pioneers to pursue STEM careers.
- Explore the surface of Mars in virtual reality with the Mars Walk app
- Watch student-created videos of space travel habitats
- Download fun lessons for parents and in-depth STEM curriculum for educators
- Zoom across our solar system and see the spacecraft and missions Lockheed Martin supports
- Play interactive learning games about deep space missions
The first immersive virtual reality vehicle that replicates 200 square miles of Martian landscape, our Mars Experience Bus uses video game technology to take guests on a virtual journey across the surface of Mars, complete with rovers already on the Red Planet and a mock-up of what the first Mars base camp could look like.
The bus will be added to the myriad experiences and activities that focus on the future of space exploration and Mars missions that make up the Summer of Mars at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex.
