The Case for Mars - non-fiction
Zubrin Robert
Unlike the dead world of the Moon, the Martian landscape is filled with
possibility, 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 surface with its own natural
resources; build bases and settlements; and one day terraform—or alter
the atmosphere of the planet in order to pave the way for sustainable
life.
