16 -Astronauts experience psychological challenges during a planetary mission caused by isolation from other human beings. Moreover, astronauts are dependent on the Life Support System (LSS) to withstand the rough, Martian environmental conditions. A proper, human centered LSS, which is controlled and understood easily by the astronaut is essential for a successful Mars mission. Staying Alive deals with the revitalizing component of the LSS in a habitat in form of a photobioreactor (PBR). PBRs have already been researched in the past, however, only a scientific basis. Staying Alive comprises three aspects of the PBR:•Communication and operation•The user interface •Contribution to the crew’s mental healthThe aim of Staying Alive is to investigate the interaction between the astronaut and the PBR. Additionally, a highly interactive sensor system will be tested. The sensor network shall be able to communicate with humans to learn from experience and new data, to explain its decisions and thus become a team member rather than a data source.For the mission experiment, a small and simplified PBR will be used in the AMADEE-24 habitat. It uses non-toxic photosynthetic organismsto produce oxygen from ambient air and will be equipped with sensor and a user interface for interaction. During the experiment the crew must perform several tasks once fully autonomously and once jointly with the Mission Support Center (MSC). The tasks to be performed include set-up, maintenance, repair, and science activities. Pre-and post-mission questionnaires as wellas video recording will be used to obtain data.
20 +In 2021, the first Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV) performed its first flight on Mars. With this flight, Ingenuity developed by NASA, proved that VTOL aircraft can operate under Martian conditions. However, furtherresearch and development is necessary to take out full advantage of flying vehicles during a Mars mission.

22 +The Rover Aerial Mars Support and Exploration System (RAM-SES) is a technology system for future UAVs using an AI-based network to autonomously detect landing sites in Mars-like environments. With participation in AMADEE-24, RAMSES’s novel approach demonstrates the process of detecting visual points of interest, either scientifically or for safe UAV navigation.
23 +
24 +The expected outcome is to utilize an AI-based network togenerate a heat map for successfully detecting landing sites inthe mission area. Additionally, the system contains gener-ated pixel-wise maps and provides comprehensive and detaileddepictions of scientific points of interest in Mars-like environments. RAMSES evaluates data gathered by other robotic vehicles to create the aforementioned heat map and points of interest. In turn, this data can enhance the mission capabilities ofother teams to further demonstrate collaboration between experiments.

26 +To achieve the defined experiment objectives within AMADEE-24,RAMSES focuses on evaluating data gathered by the SAMPLE experiment. With the help of the ground truth of the mission area data,we are able to compare the system’s pixel-wise map coordinates andimprove the precision of the location of notable features for scientific research in order to contribute to the advancement of scientificknowledge about the environment. In the context of collaborative experimentation, RAMSES shall be subjected to proof-of-concept teststhat aim to exhibit its capabilities in supporting AMADEE-24 andfuture missions.
