E3 Encounters Enhances Mars Encounter to Mark America's 250th with Frontier Spirit
Mars Encounters is an interactive educational experience that brings the excitement of space exploration to life for children, families, and students
Nationwide rollout: Updated Mars Encounters offers interactive colony exploration, kid-friendly mining, NASA tribute, tying frontier history to space future.
Mars Encounters invites guests of all ages to step into a functioning Martian outpost, where engineering, sustainability, and innovation are essential for survival. Participants learn how settlers on Mars would mine Martian ore to extract water, generate oxygen, and produce fuel—core systems required to sustain life on the Red Planet.
A centerpiece of the experience is Destiny, a full-scale replica of a Mars rover that serves as both guide and mission companion throughout the colony. Guided by Destiny, guests explore how Mars habitats are engineered, how life-support systems are maintained, how food is grown using hydroponics, and how Martian conditions differ dramatically from those on Earth.
New interactive elements include kid-operated Mars mining diggers that simulate real extraterrestrial resource extraction, allowing participants to experience firsthand how raw Martian materials can be transformed into usable resources. The experience also features a special tribute museum honoring NASA’s most historic space accomplishments, highlighting the missions, technologies, and breakthroughs that made human exploration beyond Earth possible.
Tawnia Linde, the marketing director with Clark County Fair in Ridgefield, WA is really excited “With our 2026 Fair theme being ‘Blast Off to Fun’ we have found a perfect partner for our feature area with the Mars Encounters exhibit. We are thrilled be part of launching this educational and fun exhibit at our Fair this year.”
“The same spirit of discovery that drove America’s pioneers 250 years ago is alive today in space exploration,” said Keri DeWitt, Founder and Owner of E3 Encounters. “Mars Encounters shows how modern engineering, robotics, and sustainable systems could enable humanity to live on another planet—just as ingenuity and perseverance once shaped a new nation here on Earth.”
Already booked at multiple large fairs for 2026, Mars Encounters is now accepting additional bookings for schools, state and county fairs, museums, and private events nationwide.
