Martian Regolith Simulant Set

Exploring Mars – Simulated Regolith from Craters and Valleys
Bring a piece of Mars to Earth with this fascinating set of simulated regolith, designed to mimic the surface of the Red Planet. Based on data from NASA's rover missions, this set gives you the chance to explore both global averages and unique locations like Jezero Crater - an ancient lakebed filled with geological history. Perfect for science enthusiasts, education or as a truly unique gift for space enthusiasts!

Why you'll love it:
• Contains two types of Martian regolith: a global simulant representing surface dust across the planet and one from Jezero Crater, a landing site for the Perseverance rover.
• Global regolith is based on data from Curiosity and Opportunity and reflects the average surface properties of the planet.
• The regolith of Jezero Crater is brighter and unique, based on data from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter – a site believed to have been an ancient lake.
• Inspired by NASA research – use the material to understand how crops can be grown, how tire designs are tested, or how bricks can be made for future Mars expeditions.
• A perfect and unique gift for someone who already has everything or who is impossible to buy presents for – this is something they are guaranteed not to have!

What is regolith?
Regolith is the loose surface layer of dust, rock, and minerals that covers a planet. On Mars, regolith is rich in iron, giving the planet its iconic red color. The regolith of Jezero Crater is particularly interesting because of its mineral composition, which reveals clues about Mars' geological history and its potential for once harboring life.

Specifications:
• Contents: Two samples of simulated Martian regolith - Global Regolith and Jezero Crater Regolith.
• Use: Education, research, experiments or as a unique gift.
• Based on data from: NASA's Curiosity, Opportunity and Perseverance rovers.
