The Mars Underground (5/6) [HD]

"Zubrin really, nearly alone, changed our thinking on this issue..."
-- Carl Sagan

The Mars Underground is a landmark documentary about renowned aerospace scientist and visionary, Dr. Robert Zubrin, and his struggle to get the first human mission to Mars off the ground.

Shot entirely in breathtaking high definition (HD) and directed by accomplished documentarian, Scott J. Gill (Porn Star: The Legend of Ron Jeremy, The Blood Earth), this film brings to life Dr. Zubrin's vision, known as 'Mars Direct,', through startling 3-D CGI animation of the launch, voyage and landing of spacecraft, as well as glimpses into the future of man's reign on Mars.

Through Dr. Zubrin's compelling words, moody cinematic visuals and lush original score, The Mars Underground is a surreal journey from the glory of the 1960s Space Race, the decline of NASA in the 1980s and 1990s, through the faltering moon and Mars programs of today, and into one man's quest to propel humanity towards a new world.

@TheZombieman87 I will read that eventually, but yesterday I watched the '98 lecture by the same title. I'm sure the updated book has more details though.

@Iamnotaparakeet You speak the truth. If you want to learn more on Mars you should read The case for Mars by Zubrin. Its a good read.

[Iamnotaparakeet]

I want to go there, to Mars, as I'm sure most people watching this video do. I hope that will be made possible in the near future. I'm willing to learn whatever I have to in order to make myself useful and do any training necessary to become an astronaut, but with so many politicians nixing everything I wonder if it would even matter. Mars Direct could be the new Mayflower, but not with politicians making stupid demands and placing the responsibility upon future generations to do nothing more.
