16		-The summary is taken from the manifest by copy / paste. The following text is just for demonstrating purpose!
	20	+As previous AMADEE missions have shown, robotic systems can support astronauts very well during extra-vehicular activities (EVAs). Therefore, human-robot operations will be an essential tool in future Mars missions.
17	17
18		-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.
	22	+The iROCS experiment is looking into how the terrain in a desert can be properly mapped with mobile robots and what intuitive operating concepts need to be developed for remote control access. The trafficability of the terrain is to be investigated and possible obstacles analyzed. After all, these could have an impact on the following tasks, the accessibility for astronauts and the design of spacesuits with mobility restrictions. Furthermore, it will be tested how a robotic system can support analogue astronauts in terms of sample collection, identification, and analysis.

20		-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.
	24	+3 robots will be used during this experiment: Intelligent Robot for Mapping Applications in 3D (Irma3D), robot Charlie, and the RTE (Rosenbauer Technical Equipment) robot. Equipped with different technologies, they will perform the following tasks:
21	21
22		-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.
	26	+* sample identification and analysis with selected wavelengths and appropriate filters for cameras and LiDARs to enable both the search for water and rock analysis.
	27	+* manipulation tasks (e.g. sampling) with a collaborative robot arm
	28	+* transportation tasks between two locations
	29	+* robotic map building using Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM)
	30	+* power provider for external devices and support for astronaut field work
