An interactive mission to the Red Planet

Framed as a crewed mission, the book puts readers in charge of choices across a journey from Earth to Mars. The route includes navigating space, attempting a landing, and deciding how to explore the planet, with the possibility of life on Mars as a central question. Different decisions lead in different directions, making the mission’s structure part of its space-science subject matter. At 64 pages, it combines an imagined expedition with questions about travel, exploration, and whether Mars might support life.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 9–12 interested in Mars and space exploration
