From ancient times through the 18th century to upcoming missions of the Mars Global Surveyor, Dennis Fradin takes us on a journey to Mars. He examines our evolving thoughts about life on the red planet and how changing theories about Martians have reflected our cultural history. In August 1996, the scientific community was drawn into a controversy when NASA claimed that an ancient meteorite from Mars bore evidence of primitive life. Scientists are currently tackling some intriguing questions, the answers to which might prove that the meteorite is proof of ancient life on Mars. Fradin brings us right up to the minute.
