Product Description

When the Apollo astronauts walked on the Moon in 1969, many people imagined Mars would be next.

However NASA’s Viking 1, which landed in 1976, was just a robot. The much-anticipated crewed mission failed to materialise, defeated by a combination of technological & political challenges.

Four decades after Viking & almost half a century after Apollo technology has enhanced beyond recognition – as has politics. As private ventures like Space X seize centre stage from NASA, Mars has undergone a seismic shift – it’s become the prime destination for future human expansion & colonisation.

But what’s it really like on Mars, & why should anyone want to go there? How do you get there & what are the risks? Astrophysicist & science writer Andrew May answers these questions & more, as he traces the history of our fascination with the Red Planet.
