Virtual Space Time

There is a great deal of interest from national space agencies to go to the Moon and Mars. ESA wants to go to the Moon and establish a village there. NASA wants to go to Mars. Astronauts and Cosmonauts from all over the world are already living aboard the ISS. What can they do in their free time? It can’t be all about reading books or game play on computers. Think of new sports or games that could take into account the low gravity (e.g. a space lacrosse game, extreme basketball). What about real or virtual experiences involving the Apollo 11 landing site on the Moon? Or following the paths of Sojourner, Spirit or Curiosity on Mars using a form of cross-country skiing? Think of new ways for to astronauts to use their free time. To present your results develop an app that makes use of virtual reality tools.

"Virtual space time" is aimed to give astronauts a way to enjoy their daily routine on board.

During long distance travels, that could last years, astronauts have to do hours of phisycal exercises and fill the rest of the day with other activities.

The goal of our project is to use virtual and mixed reality during the hours of working out in order to make more pleasant astronaut's exercises.

In addiction to that, VR and MR could be useful for travelers' free time giving them the possibility of playing games or enjoying their life on board, with the help of everyone on Earth.
