Alexandra Doyle, 29, a law graduate (Leicester De Montfort Law School) from South Africa, living in Rutland, East Midlands Shortlisted to Live on Mars
The global search for astronauts began in April 2013 with more than
200,000 responding to the call.
Out of the 100 people now chosen from around the globe,
only 24 people will be selected to enter full time, long term,
intensive astronaut training with the ultimate aim of colonising Mars.
In an extensive training period, candidates will learn the skills they will need
on Mars and on their journey there. The combined skill set of each astronaut
team member will cover a very wide range of disciplines.
Mars One is a not-for-profit foundation that aims to establish a permanent
human settlement on Mars. Mars One's mission plan integrates components
that are well tested and readily available from industry leaders worldwide.
The first footprint on Mars and lives of the crew thereon will captivate and
inspire generations.
The Mars One mission plan consists of cargo missions and unmanned
preparation of a habitable settlement, followed by human landings.
In the coming years, a demonstration mission, communication satellites,
two rovers and several cargo missions will be sent to Mars.
These missions will set up the outpost where the human crew will live and work.
The mission design takes into account the expansion of the human colony
where a new crew will arrive every two years.
Mars One will select and train the human crew for permanent settlement.
