Summary "Advancements in space exploration over the years have shown us that Mars has water, one of the necessary conditions for life as we know it. Does that mean people will be able to travel to Mars soon? This book answers that common question through accessible, fun text written by an educator and vivid photography straight from NASA. Even the most reluctant reader will enjoy how easily this text walks through the current projects and past missions of Mars' history and future."-- Provided by publisher.
