4
5 AMADEE-24 is a Mars analogue simulation in Ararat, Armenia, managed by the Austrian Space Forum and hosted by the Armenian Aerospace Agency taking place between March and April 2024.

7 **Simulating Mars Human-robotic surface activities in terrestrial analogues has evolved into an efficient tool for developing exploration mission architectures. They facilitate the understanding of the advantages and limitations of future Human planetary missions, becoming an added value for the development of remote science operations, helping to understand the constraints and opportunities of the technology and work-flows.**

10 The test sites will be selected for their geological and topographic similarity to Mars. The AMADEE-24 mission presents an excellent opportunity to:
11
12 * __Study equipment behaviour__ involving the simultaneous usage of instruments with the option of humans-in-the-loop (via two high-fidelity spacesuit simulators, portable system, etc.)
13 * The development of __platforms for testing life-detection or geo-science techniques__, robotic support tools for human missions and concepts for high situational awareness of remote support teams.
14 * __Study the analogue as a model region__ for their Martian counterparts.
15 * Serving as a __catalyst to increase the visibility of planetary sciences__ and human exploration.
16 * Evolving the __know-how of managing human missions__ to Mars deploying a realistic model for Mission Support centre – Astronaut actions and the encompassing decision making framework.
