Race to Mars

The Terra Nova carries six astronauts from Earth to Mars



Today on Far Future Horizons we present Race to Mars.






In the year 2030, the race to be the first to reach the Red Planet is on - and China is leading the way. China has stunned the world by leapfrogging over America's long-term plans and has landed a series of advanced rovers and robotic landers in their quest to make the most important discovery in history - extraterrestrial life on Mars. Once again, America and its partners, including Canada, are thrust into a winner-take-all space race - but the stakes are higher than the race to the Moon nearly seven decades earlier. The international team accelerates its plans - when China prepares to send its final wave of rovers, this consortium will surge ahead and at last launch a human crew. Six extraordinary individuals from Canada, the United States, Russia, France and Japan are selected for this grueling two-year mission.

These four men and two women must work together as a team, rise above their secret fears and struggle with the sacrifice of leaving friends and family behind.




Race to Mars is available on DVD from Amazon.com.

Mars Rising was a six episode companion series that explored the science and technology and plans behind the "Race to Mars".
