David Levine's Mars Journal

In January 2010, I spent two weeks at the Mars Desert Research Station, a simulated Mars base in the Utah desert, as part of Crew 88. This page collects my posted journal entries and photos in one easy-to-find place.

Other Crew Members' Blogs

Other crew members kept blogs of their own:

The Mars Diaries is nothing more nor less than a trade paperback collecting the blogs of the Mars Desert Research Station's Crew 88. The content is the same as what you could find at Bianca's, Laksen's, Paul's, Diego's and my blogs, and the pictures are in black and white. All I've done is collect them in one place, put them in chronological order, and format them for print. Well, I also got Lynne Ann Morse and Kate Yule to translate Bianca's and Diego's blogs into English -- that's something you won't find online.

The main purpose of this book is to have a physical souvenir for the crew, and their friends and families, of our adventure on "Mars." But as long as I've gone to the trouble of putting this volume together, I saw no reason not to make it available for anyone who wants to buy a copy. You can order one yourself, if you like, from lulu.com:

Media

I've had several appearances in the media since my return: I also gave a five-minute talk about my trip at Ignite Portland 8:

And I presented a sixty-minute Tech Talk about my trip to the engineers at Google:
