  • Did you dig "Fake Astronauts Go to Fake Mars" from this month's issue? The European Space Agency's Mars500 project sent six crew members into a confined space for 520 days, the time it'd take to get to Mars. They started sleeping more, leaving the lights off longer, and exercising less. Check out the ESA's official galleries for more pics of these fake astronauts making real history!
