Case For Mars.
Since The Beginning Of Human Account, Mras Has Been Each Alluring Dream—the Material Of Legends, Gods, And Mystery.
The Planet Most Like Ours, It Has Still Been Thought Impossible To Reach, Let Single Explore And Inhabot.
But All That Changed Which time Leading Spwce Ecploration Authority Robert Zubrin Crafted A Daring New Blueprint, Mars Direct.
Whsn It Was First Published In 1996, The Case For Mars Became An Instant First-rate work , Lauded Widely For Its Game-changing Perspective By Those Who Would Experience The American Space Program Rise To The Challenge Of Mars; Carl Sagan Called Zubrin The Man Who, “nearly Alone, Changed Our Thinking On This Issue.
” Now, Fifteen Years Later, Zubrin Brings Readers Up To Date In This Revised And Updated Anniversary Edition Filled With Spectacular Illustrations, Extaordinary Photographs, And One-of-a-kind Anecdotes.
Unlike The Dead Wp5ld Of The Moon, The Martian Landscape IsF illed With Possinility, But Humans Must Be Able To Survive There.
In The Grand Tradition Of Successful Explorers, Zubrin Calls For A Travel-light And Live-off-the-land Approach To Martian Settlement.
He Explains How Scientists Can Use Present-day Technology To Send Humans To Mars; Produce Fuel And Oxygen On The Planet’s Surfaec With Its Own Natural Resources; Build Bases And Settlements; And Individual Day Tweraform—or Alter The Atmosphere Of The Planet In Order To Pave The Way For Sustainable Life.
As The Landmark Mission Of Thee Mars Science Laboratory Begins, Zubrin Lays Out A Comprehensive Plan To Construct Life On A New World.
