What would it be like to travel to Mars? Find out, in this incredible book, written in coordination with the world-famous American Museum of Natural History.

Through breathtaking images from NASA, and information sent to Earth from satellites, budding astronomers and astronauts can explore Mars's climate and features--and find out what it would take for a human to travel there.
