Destination Mars

Synopsis:

National space agencies and billionaires are rushing to put humans on the red planet. Not just in the future, but now.   Billions are being spent.  Rockets are being launched.   Today, Mars is a planet entirely populated by robots – but that won’t be the case for long. Destination: Mars is told through the stories of the men and women whose lives focus on a journey that will likely go down in history alongside Columbus and Magellan. The red planet: humanity’s future or grand delusion?
