Annotation: Part of the "Accelerate" series, "Exploration of Mars" describes the types of space mission that would be required to bring life to Mars. It looks at different space probes and vehicles using illustrations with extended captions and labels. How and why would Mars need to be altered in order for human life to be sustainable on the planet? There is a discussion about what living things need to survive. The book offers a split page presentation which creates some interesting changes of scene. For example, readers can see how the inside of a habitation module corresponds to its interior.
