JSRI - Jordan Space Research Initiative

T-1 to WBA 🚀 JSRI has landed on Mars!

Our crew (Joud, Sara, and Ghadaq) are officially on site for PETRA-2, the first analog mission made up entirely of Arab women, representing Jordan and Palestine. 🇯🇴🇵🇸

These pictures taken earlier today show the PETRA-2 crew at their Martian dome with the on-site Mission Control team and our local hosts in Wadi Rum, whose partnership and hospitality make this mission possible.

JSRI is proud to be part of the World’s Biggest Analog and to continue redefining what space exploration looks like, grounded in sustainability, respect, and community. Working hand in hand with the original owners of this land is an essential part of our mission’s success and part of what makes JSRI unique in the analog world.

Join us at the WBA Opening Ceremony tomorrow to learn more about our mission! Link in bio ✨
