The thirteen new astronauts chosen by the agency had to pass hard physical and psychological tests, where the main focus was human exploration on Mars, where the climatic conditions are extreme and they must endure hard tests in order to survive on the red planet.
The awards ceremony was held in Houston, Texas, having a historical connotation, as it is the first “graduation” of astronauts to be made public. There was a record of applications for this application, since according to the data collected in total there were 18,000 thousand applicants to perform the tests.

In the chosen group there are 6 women and 7 men, who received a striking awards ceremony where they could meet each one, a situation that is not usually very common in the Agency.
Finally, for now NASA will continue working to perfect this new space project with which complex tests have been proposed, since once again taking a group of human beings to the Moon and Mars will require all the efforts of its scientists.
