A Mars Analogue-Field-test between the 27th of April and the 1st of May 2012, together with international partners. The test took place in the mammoth and giant ice caves in the Dachstein Area in Austria. Aside from testing the newest version of the Forum's Spacesuit simulator Aouda.X, teams from 10 different nations (from the US, Europe and New Zealand) tried geophysical techniques, instruments and ideas for future manned missions to cave systems on Mars.
