We joined a live stream where we learned about NASA and the ESA's efforts to send humans back to the moon and onto Mars. We looked at what sort of professions astronauts come from, the type of rockets we need to travel amongst the stars, and where we would live on both on the Moon and Mars. We were also able to see the variations of different satellites to send signals back to and from spacecraft. ### To the Moon and Mars!
