16 -Astronauts are at all times required to provide outstanding performance. They are to remain resilient and to maintain their psychological well-being in order to successfully accomplish their mission in extreme and isolated environments. Future Martian explorers therefore have to be selected and trained to be able to deal with such environments and to be able to maintain an adaptive and resilient mind-set, communicate with others efficiently and pro-actively, process and accept worries and sadness, and to stay persistent with respect to the goals of the mission.
20 +The analysis of rock samples allows us to unravel the history of a terrestrial planet. This includes its accretion, the tectonic and magmatic processes that shape its interior, and the processes that shape its surface morphological features. In addition, rock samples can preserve information about the evolution of a planets atmosphere and hold clues to the former presence of a biosphere, the nature of its various ecosystems and possible causes of its demise. In case of Mars, the planet’s major surface morphological features testify to an extensive history of volcanic activity and provide strong evidence for the former presence of large bodies of liquid water.

18 -In the course of the experiment, all six analog astronauts will be trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). In a wide range of studies, ACT has proven to increase people’s psychological flexibility; this is, their ability to pursue their important goals, even when they experience thoughts, feelings, fears, and emotions that may get in the way of their moving towards those goals. The ACT training will focus on providing key, practical skills that the participants can use in carrying out their daily activities, as well as in interacting with their colleagues. This study aims to assesses the ability of ACT to improve participants’ psychological flexibility, stress and well-being, performance and error measures, narrative contents and communication patterns, cognitive and physiological outcomes.
22 +The GeoPrep experiment is designed to prepare a rock sample for a first microscopic examination. This will improve the selection process of samples on other planets which will be sent back to Earth by integrating the results into a decision-making process aimed at selecting the suitable samples.

20 -The study will use a pre - post-test design. The pre-test will be completed by the participants before the ACT training, a post-test after completing the training. Further, a follow-up measure will be taken from participants at the end of their mission. Additional qualitative data will be collected from the analog astronauts in form of a diary.
24 +GeoPrep will investigate whether it is possible to set up a rock sample preparation facility in a Martian field lab using as simple a technical and operational approach as possible to produce thin sections of different materials. The experiment will also show if this facility can be operated by an analog astronaut with no previous knowledge about rock sample preparation.

26 +To realize this experiment, a sample of appropriate size will be collected in an inflatable glove bag, to avoid contamination. After cleaning, a piece of that sample will be cut off and examined using a petrographic microscope. The quality of the sample aswell as to what extent it can be analyzed using different techniques will also be studied.
