Watch teddy bear history: Elizabeth becomes the FIRST stuffed animal to travel to Mars!
Elizabeth has waited for years, and now she is finally going to Mars!
This teddy bear began talking about traveling to Mars many, many years ago. Christoph and I listened to her dreams, but how would she be able to travel there?
Mars is really, really, really far away:
We reached out to the scientists at NASA!
They helped us create an advanced space capsule for her that could travel to Mars in only 6 hours. Wow!
Then we asked Elon Musk (a space engineer) for help. Elon gave us some great tips, and he even gave Elizabeth a rare gravitometer!
Watch the video to see Elizabeth take off for Mars:
Did Elizabeth pack everything she needs?
Take a look, and let me know:
spacesuit
map
gravitometer
soil
three potatoes
dehydrated water
hand sanitizer
seashell
guidebook
Now be sure to check out the other video we made when she returned to Earth!
