Description / NASA Missions to Mars
Whether it conjures up thoughts of green Martians or a potential future home for us one day, Mars has inspired boundless fascination and exploration. Who better than space historian Piers Bizony to show you around the red planet.
Using glorious imagery from the NASA archives, alongside photos and data beamed 246 million miles back to Earth by spacecraft orbiting Mars, Piers covers it all! From the flybys of the 1960s to the landing of the Perseverance rover in 2021. He even explains how we’d need to be dressed if we ever undertook the dangerous task of arriving on the surface. There’s also a fold-out map for Earth dwellers to follow.
