On This Day in Space: Curiosity Rover Lands on Mars
On 6th August 2012, NASA's Curiosity rover achieved a significant milestone in space exploration by successfully landing in Gale Crater on Mars.
Its primary goal is to assess the planet's habitability and seek signs of past microbial life, with its landing site, Gale Crater, chosen for its diverse geological history and potential to have supported life.
In Curiosity's 12 years roaming Mars, key discoveries include evidence of ancient lakes and streams, organic molecules, and the complex chemical building blocks of life, demonstrating that Mars was once a potentially habitable environment.
Curiosity continues to transmit invaluable data, enhancing our understanding of the and laying the groundwork for future manned missions.
Join us in reflecting on this remarkable achievement in space exploration.

We couldn't agree more with John Glenn.
At Stellar Frontiers, our mission goes beyond incredible experiences in space. We believe that private human spaceflight should be a force for good, benefiting not just our exploration efforts but also our beautiful planet Earth.
Our core values are rooted in sustainability, innovation, and global unity. We are committed to leveraging commercial space travel to tackle some of Earth's most pressing challenges. Here are a few ways private astronauts can make a difference:
Education & Inspiration: Private astronauts serve as ambassadors for STEM education, inspiring the next generation of scientists, engineers, and dreamers to innovate and solve global problems.
Medical Research: Conducting experiments in microgravity leads to breakthroughs in medicine, from developing new treatments to understanding diseases, directly benefiting human health on Earth.
Environmental Awareness: Experiencing the fragility of Earth from space gives astronauts a unique perspective, driving advocacy and action for environmental conservation and sustainable practices.

What is the overview effect?
Many astronauts describe a profound cognitive shift upon seeing the earth from space. This is known as the overview effect.
Looking at the curvature of the earth against the black vastness of space allows a new perspective and seeing countries without borders highlights how divided we have become. Those who have been lucky enough to see our planet from this vantage point often return transformed and with a strong desire to do good.
With more opportunities opening up for civilians to fly to space and experience the overview effect than ever before, we can positively impact our planet through this new wave of commercial space travel.

An interesting fact about Stellar Frontiers ⬇️
When creating our brand identity, we wanted to pay homage to one of, if not the most iconic space missions to date; the Apollo 11 moon landing. We did this by taking inspiration for our font from the characters found on the Omega Speedmaster, the wristwatch worn by the three NASA astronauts during the moon landing mission.
