Travel to and from Mars is definitely a staple of technology fiction. Yet the hurdles - both technological and financial - have placed real human exploration of the red entire world from learning to be a certainty. Trailblazing Mars provides an inside look at the current efforts to satisfy this aspiration. Award-winning journalist Pat Duggins examines the extreme new problems that'll be experienced by astronauts on the trip there and again. They'll have to increase their own food, find their own water, and solve their own problems and emergencies without desire of save or re-supply. Mars travel could be more challenging and unsafe than settling the Old West - but we weren't see to the fate of the Donner Get together on CNN. Can the technological hurdles be cleared? Will the general public accept the real probability of astronaut death? Should a quest be publicly or privately funded? Is the science worth the price? These and a great many other questions are answered in Duggins's exciting new book.
