Description
An inspiring exploration of the establishment of humans on Marsโtying into the National Geographic television documentary series Mars.The next frontier in space exploration is Mars, the Red Planetโand human habitation of Mars isnโt much farther off. In October 2015, NASA declared Mars โan achievable goalโ; that same season, Ridley Scott and Matt Damonโs The Martian drew crowds into theaters, grossing over $200 million.
Now the National Geographic Channel fast forwards years ahead with Mars, a six-part series documenting and dramatizing the next twenty-five years as humans land on and learn to live on Mars. Following on the visionary success of Buzz Aldrinโs Mission to Mars and the visual glory of Marc Kaufmanโs Mars Up Close, this companion book to the Nat Geo series shows the science behind the mission and the challenges awaiting those brave individuals.
The book combines science, technology, and storytelling, offering what only National Geographic can create. Clear scientific explanations make the Mars experience real and provide amazing visuals to savor and return to again and again. ISBN:9781426217586
