The New World on Mars

Auteur
Dr. Robert Zubrin has devoted more thought than any other person alive to the goal of reaching Mars and making it a new home for humankind. A former Senior Engineer at Lockheed Martin, in 1996 he founded Pioneer Astronautics, an aerospace R&D company which he led for 27 years until selling it in 2023. Founder and president of the Mars Society, in 2000 and 2001 he led the construction of Mars analog research stations in the Canadian Arctic and American deserts, and has overseen over 300 simulated Mars exploration missions conducted there since. Zubrin created the original Mars Direct plan, to reach the red planet using existing technologies and Martian resources. He is also the author of twenty patents and twelve books, including The Case for Mars, now in its 25th Anniversary Edition.

Résumé
Dr Zubrin has written a magnificent book which will set the gold standard for all future books about Mars. He is a pioneer and a visionary, but his conjectures are always based on solid science. His book takes us one step closer to the day when we can live and thrive on another planet. Michio Kaku, theoretical physicist and author of The God Equation and Quantum Supremacy
