Over 18,300 people applied to NASA for 14 jobs. This is a record. NASA will spend 18 months choosing the best people. The successful people will start in 2017. NASA said many people know what a great chance this is to be part of its space mission. It looks forward to meeting all the talented men and women.

Many people want to work for NASA. Many people from different backgrounds want to help on NASA's journey to Mars. The top applicants will have an interview.
