The so-called Martian and lunar habitat, HI-SEAS, is located in Hawaii and its research projects are run by the International Moonbase Alliance (IMA) [1]. Numerous aspects of space missions are simulated in order to make them be as realistic as possible, including time delays in communication, emergency procedures and performing relevant research. In 2019, the EuroMoonMars campaign was launched at HI-SEAS, bringing together researchers from the European Space Agency (ESA), IMA, the International Lunar Exploration Working Group (ILEWG), VU Amsterdam and many other international organizations [2,3]. The campaign aims to increase awareness about the research and technology testing that can be performed in analog environments, in order to help humans become multi-planetary species.
