WELCOME TO THE MISSION

You are already flying through space. This is your training.

"Hey there! I am Coach Lucy. Welcome to Marstronaut in Training. Let us get you oriented, introduce you to your crew, and set you on your path. Ready, explorer?"

"You already live on a spaceship, traveling through space. It is called planet Earth. That makes you all members of humanity — astronauts on the same mission. A lifeboat through space. How can we all help each other stay alive, survive, and thrive?"
— The Core Idea

Every human alive is already on the most important mission in history. The question is not whether you are on the mission. The question is whether you are training to be the kind of crew this mission deserves: fit, kind, informed, engaged, a team player, a leader.

Your Challenge

Help Life Thrive at Every Level

From your own body to the entire planet — this is the scope of the mission.
