Mars Rising - Staying Alive

Today on Far Future Horizons we present another exciting episode of the acclaimed documentary series “Mars Rising” – “Staying Alive”. William Shatner narrates this exciting series.

Preparing and protecting the human body in deep space may be a greater challenge than all the technological factors in planning a mission to Mars. Living together in a confined environment for up to three years, the six astronauts will become each others' caregivers. They will face zero gravity with its debilitating effect on muscle and bone mass; solar storms; and cosmic radiation—microscopic particles piercing the skin of the spacecraft and penetrating the bodies of those inside can cause brain damage and cancer.

Mars Rising is available in an exciting DVD collection from Amazon.com.
