What if you could recreate Mars on Earth? 🚀 Researchers in the lab of Alexandre Rosado @Rosado_AS have built a Planetary Simulation Chamber at KAUST, designed to recreate Mars-like conditions and study how life responds to extreme environments. The insights could help advance both future space exploration and solutions to challenges here on Earth. @WorldSpaceWeek @KAUST_News #WorldSpaceWeek #WSW2026 #SpaceWeek #Astrobiology #SpaceBiology #KAUST
