Six scientists who were living under a dome on the slopes
of a dormant Hawaii volcano for eight months to simulate
life on Mars have emerged from isolation.

The crew stepped outside the dome that's 8,000 feet
(2,400 metres) up the slopes of Mauna Loa to feel fresh
air on their skin on Saturday. It was the first time they
left without donning a space suit.

The scientists are part of a human performance study
funded by Nasa that tracked how they worked together as a
team. They have been monitored by surveillance cameras,
body movement trackers and electronic surveys.
