Once Upon A Time I Lived on Mars: Space, Exploration, and Life on Earth

When it comes to Mars, the focus is often on how to get there: the rockets, the engines, the fuel, but upon arrival, what will it actually be like . . . ?

Kate Greene draws on her firsthand experience to contemplate humanity’s broader impulse to explore in Once Upon a Time I Lived on Mars, and the result is a twined story of space and life.  By asking what kind of wisdom humanity might take to Mars and elsewhere in the Universe, Greene has written a remarkable, wide-ranging examination of our time in space right now, as a pre-Mars species, poised on the edge, readying for launch.
