The pair spent 60 days in a compact shelter in Greenland to simulate harsh lunar conditions as part of the Lunark mission, where they endured Arctic temperatures of minus 30°C.
They chose Dubai desert for its similarity to the Martian conditions with dry climate and sandstorms.
The UAE is currently building a Mars Science City in Al Khawaneej for research purposes after announcing plans for a city on Mars by the year 2117.
Danes and Karl-Johan work at Saga Space Architects, a company that aims to make space liveable for future travellers through approaching habitat design from a human perspective.
