be on the ground floor: to be involved in something from the beginning, especially something that is expected to become very successful or popular
Have you ever dreamed of life on Mars? NASA is making this dream a step closer to reality! They are looking for people to live in a Mars-like home in Houston for one year. This home is very special because it is made with a 3D printer and looks like the Martian surface. Inside, four people will pretend they are on Mars, doing important tasks like growing plants and fixing things. This helps NASA learn how to live on Mars in the future. If you are healthy, speak English well, and love adventures, you might be able to join! You need to be between 30 and 55 years old. Also, having a good education in science or engineering is important. Manned space missions to Mars likely won’t happen until the 2030s, but this could be your chance to be on the ground floor of a big space adventure!
