The Case for Mars
- La questione Marte -
by Robert Zubrin with Richard Wagner
Foreword by Arthur C. Clarke
With the latest information about life on Mars |
Since the beginning of human history Mars has been an alluring dream - the stuff of legends, gods, and mistery. The planet most like ours, it has still been thought impossible to reach, let alone explore and inhabit.
Now with the advent of a revolutionary new plan, all this has changed. Leading space exploration authority Robert Zubrin has crafted a daring new blueprint, Mars Direct, presented here with illustrations and engaging anecdotes.
The Case for Mars is not a vision for the far future or one that will cost us impossible billions. It explains step-by-step how we can use present-day technology to send humans to Mars within ten years; actually produce fuel and oxygen on the planet's surface with Martian natural resources; how we can build bases and settlements; and how we can one day "terraform" Mars - a process that can alter the atmosphere of planets and pave the way for sustainable life.
Formerly a senior engineer at Lockheed Martin, Robert Zubrin is the founder of Pioneer Astronautics, a space-exploration research and development fim. Currently chairman of the executive commitee of the National Space Society and president of the Mars Society, Dr. Zubrin lives with his family in Lakewood, Colorado.
Richard Wagner is the former editor of AD Astra, the journal of the National Space Society. He lives in Northampton, Massachusetts.
