Experts suggest that we could see a successful human voyage to Mars in our lifetime, and when it happens, it will be the most ambitious, complex and dangerous expedition ever undertaken. With all the advancements in space travel and exhaustive scientific research being done today at international space agencies and laboratories, perhaps the future is near at hand. Discovery Channel's new four-part series RACE TO MARS imagines and simulates the first manned mission to the Red Planet.
RACE TO MARS captures every exhilarating moment and draws viewers into the heart of the mission - from leaving Earth's orbit to the return voyage home.
In the year 2030, the race to be the first to reach the Red Planet is on - and China is leading the way. China has stunned the world by leapfrogging over America's long-term plans and has landed a series of advanced rovers and robotic Landers in their quest to make the most important discovery in history - extraterrestrial life. Once again, America and its partners, including Canada, are thrust into a winner-take-all space race - but this time the stakes are even higher than the race to the Moon nearly seven decades earlier.
