The Race to The Red planet - Episode 3

44m 00s

This episode looks at what we know about Mars, from the water (ice) concentrations, to the methane gas, to the ferrous earth and goes into the reason why Man might be interested in the planet at all as a possible colony supplying natural resources back to Earth. Interviewees include scientists and engineers plus the astronauts training for the Mars Mission – a mission that will have physical demands far beyond their own careers as astronauts.
