The human race’s desire to explore the boundaries of the known world drove our ancestors to climb the tallest mountains, conquer the poles and cross vast uncharted oceans before ultimately reaching out into space in the 1960s. Huge rockets were built to allow our space pioneers to travel beyond Earth’s orbit and land on the Moon. But there is another frontier that we have yet to set foot on – Mars. The Red Planet is our next destination; it will be a long process, starting with small scientific bases hidden among craters and ending with enormous self-sustaining cities. But what will the journey from Earth to Mars be like? What will we find when we land? Where will we get oxygen and food? In this book, you will find answers to all these questions about day-to-day life in a Martian city. Mars offers us the opportunity to start anew – are you ready for lift-off?
An inspirational book for future travellers and explorers. Moving to Mars is both a journey to Mars and a very real future.
All the diagrams are clear and well designed, and the illustrations are inspiring. They show a future vision of what humankind will be able to achieve. This book will be sure to spark the imagination of readers. Not just future scientists, but explorers and travellers too. A great addition to school libraries and classrooms for children in upper Key Stage 2 and above, and a perfect text to have in class when learning about space.
A scintillating piece of non-fiction for kids, Moving to Mars explores how future generations could call Mars home. A fresh look at the red planet from the past, present and future!
