Scientific paper

During a high-fidelity Mars analogue field simulation at the Rio Tinto Mars analogue site in southern Spain between 15-25 April 2011, we have tested potential contamination vectors for a spacesuited astronaut. Using a set of standard geophysical methods likely to be deployed during a Mars mission and the 45kg spacesuit simulator Aouda.X [1], we studied the likelihood of a transfer of simulated biological material between the environment and the human crew. These potential forward and backward contamination vectors were analyzed using fluorescent microspherules samples during various exploratory activities including utilizing the ESA Eurobot Ground Prototype.
