Eleonore Poli, commander of the analogue astronauts crew of Asclepios I in the Grimsel Test Site underground tunnels.
Asclepios is a program of space analogue missions designed by students for students, under the mentorship of trained professionals. It seeks to simulate short-term space missions on another celestial body, such as the Moon or Mars, thus paving the way to the future space exploration of the solar system.
The Asclepios missions are exclusively opened to students with the goal of arousing their interest in future space endeavors as becoming astronauts, space engineers or members of the Mission Control Center. The purpose of analog missions is to help organizations within the space domain test their processes or products in a realistic environment. The objectives of the Asclepios missions are to act as an enabler for scientific entities, to train students through their work, and to promote space sciences. Experts and professionals such as Swiss astronaut Claude Nicollier act as mentors and advisors regarding the mission preparation.[1]
